We had the Gunbus at Sywell for a while IIRC Spitfire Spares bought it so it’s still around – it was powered by a Coventry Climax engine and was made out of steel and weighed a ton. I ‘flew’ it when hammered once! 

Second one off a Trolley Acc? 

It was… TFC sold it a couple of years ago to the chap who owns The Shark Mustang

Yes its a 2″ MATRA rocket from a rocket pod – used inter alia by Royal Navy

Just reading my copy now. I like it! Much better layout clearer to read and more aviation preservation content which is why FP was set up in the first place. It was always my thought that on acquiring Aeroplane, Key would do this and make Aeroplane the mainly historic magazine whilst FP did the show and restoration scene.  Aeroplane has really turned around since the Kelsey days and I wish FP the best with their new refreshed look.

I posted about this a while ago and IIRC there was no new gen – I believe it was owned by the Boston/Havoc Trust – Ken Ellis did a piece on it in Flypast a couple of years ago. It looked magnificent but not seen anything recently
