😮 😮 😮 😮
😮 thats crazy, there must have been some sort of brace between the tailplanes? and the centresection must have been incredibly strong. i wonder what the flying controls were like too!!!
😮 happy birthday indeed, i hope you find a nice shiny cranberry parked on thr drive with a bit red ribbon wrapped around it and they keys in your hand 😀 all the best, have a good day 😀
…..Flippin eck Victor,are you the duty thread starter or something 😀
LOL 😀 good threads though!
there is also a wreck of a BV138 in a museum in denmark, danish technical museum in helsingor? i think. cant find any pics though
according to this website

it still is
Garber Restoration Facility-Silver Hill, MD
looks like a hell of a machine!
she looks to be in a fairly sorry state, but if she’s been stored in america somewhere really hot it could just be faded paint and dirt? why has she been left without cowls on though? reviveable?
any napier sabre’s still exist? would be a hell of a thing to recreate and really find out if it was capable of 500mph! 😀
breathtaking
the link to the thunderjhet photo depicts one in thailand which is fairly close 🙂 looking through airliners.net i really was surprised to see how many fairly rare 40’s-50’s aircraft are actually in china and its surrounding countries!
already decided im wrong, but the two are very similar, a chinese reproduction maybe?
i think its a Republic F-84 Thunderjet,

Compare the two photographs. the above aircraft is also from the Thai airforce 🙂 hope this helps and that its right lol
