Much too young to have ever seen a Javelin fly but my Dad has several on home movies form Norfolk Broad holidays whilst around Coltishall and Horsham St Faith - what a beast!That static example at Fairford last year and Duxfords exBoscombe test machine are superb.

I thought the weird noise a Javelin made was aerodynamic rather than powerplant- caused by the gun ports in that barn door wing, like the Meteor F8s engine intake "groaning" or the Hunter's sabrina's blue note??

Hate to be padantic but shouldnt this, the Vulcan and Bucc threads be in history & nostalgia?
