Any Stirlings in China ?

Or late marque Spitfires in Egypt ?

And “proof-of-concept” Stirling, made by Shorts themselves:

Daz,

Would not a 50% Stirling be the most viable ?

Especially as someone could tell the CAA that it has of course been done before (by Shorts).

Although i think i’m correct in saying that Pobjoy engines are like Dodo poo (?).

Are they all in collections or does anybody still run them ?

.

There’s only half a data plate, so rightfully only one half of a rebuild would be authentic. The other half would be a replica 🙂

At Legends soon then ? :diablo:

Am I missing any?
Thanks.

Hmm,Alas unfortunately it is they way of things to come, this has come from a very reliable source within the Ministry, How many of the sea harriers and jaguars have you seen sold complete with engines and avionics?same with the Jetstreams, a disposal agent local to ourselves buys and shifts on many of the said Jaguars and Harriers, neither adours of pegasus engines are available complete or dressed, the engines and avionics are stripped, allmost all vital equipment is now stripped, and many also have the fuel tanks holed internally.

Indeed, all SHAR and Jaguar disposals to date, are indeed engineless, and in the case of the SHAR, the cockpits are stripped of useful spares also.

Useful to whom is open to debate, as those SHAR’s and T.8’s still flying have to use NOS spares from Stafford, and ~not~ those removed from the fleet, merely to use up the allocated budget…. strange but true 😮

Its T.7 XL623, repainted a few years ago from its previous garish scheme…

Ahh i remember now, do you mean the circles on the rear fuselage, like the Mysterons?

Nah, its that darn benefits agency again !! 😀

Somebody at MAM is working and claiming at the same time :diablo:
