    Just a quick glace reveals Caravelle, Trident, Superconnie, DC 8, Comet 4, possibly Argosy. A closer look might reveal more……

    in pic 3 there’s an Argosy out side BEA, is that the Connie that can’t be found

    doesn’t that Cessna 170 look smart, takes me back to when American Aircraft were imported via Ireland, mainly Pipers but still nostalgic

    thanks Mike I knew that was right, so many P51’s are polished all over, I think it’s to do with the American love of chrome, and they do like to change History

    the OP photo looks like an official photo using a professional camera, beautifully exposed and for the time a great lens
