Post #30, Is it the headlight from a Triumph Spitfire?

On second thoughts, it looks more like an early nissan Z car, ZX280 perhaps?

lol

Glad to hear she’s staying in her all metal finish, It’s by far my favorite lightning scheme! Not that there’s anything with the two fine examples you have at Brunty Andy!!

Tough one this, so many types to choose from! Without trying to echo previous comments, (as I’d like to see most of the aforementioned Aircraft take to the skies again!) for me, just to be a little bit different, The Spruce Goose or that rather large jet powered boat/seaplane the Russians built to transport trppos/equipment. Can’t remember the name of the thing thoug, I’m sure someone far wiser than me can help out!

Apologies for the slight thread creep, but I heard a Hatfield story this week which Made me laugh, so I thought I’d share it with you. I had the honour to meet a pilot this week, who upon leaving the RAF a good few years ago, applied for a job at Hatfield. Prior to this he had been on a test pilots exchange tour with the USAF at Edwards AFB Stateside, where he had worked with NASA on the development of winglets. When he left the RAF he asked what he could and couldn’t talk to any prospective employers about, they said hs pilots notes he could use, but that was it, no references to any documents etc.

So when BAe Hatfield asked him what he’d been working on recently he mentioned winglets to see if they’d be interested,

“No sonny, we build wings right in the first place!” came the reply.

Correct Keith! Well done!
