    The point the scientists made was that it would be impossible to go back in time to before a time machine was invented.
    The equal and opposite reaction to moving forward fast would be the means of propulsion moving in the opposite direction.
    Maybe it’s because moving forward has no negative equal (moving backwards is still positive) that backwards time travel is perhaps impossible…

    I remember a TV programme which featured scientists argueing about time travel, and the consensus was that it would be perfectly possible to travel forward in time by moving very quickly in relation to time passing on Earth, but that it would be impossible to go back in time to before a time machine was actually invented…

    Many thanks gents – the silver on G-KAXF does look very close. There are large areas of the original Aluminium paint on WT660 to compare it with…

    Wasn’t the supposed design criteria for the airframe to be able to fly 1000 miles at 1000 mph to deliver a 1000 kg internal payload?

    Jim – looks like all the radial bike engines are R2800s from Rotec Engineering…

    But all those radials look quite tame – here’s ‘Mad’ Ron Laycock and his afterburning RR Viper motorcycle – 3800hp!
