But JF, do you think that Camm's TSR2 competitor, the P1129, would have fared any better with the Air Staffs and government of the day?
Perhaps it was the fault of the Air Staffs of the day in demanding that aircraft such as TSR2 and P1154 were to be so cutting edge? Whereas Camm's rather more conservative P1129 and P1150 would perhaps have had an easier gestation?
I've heard another tp suggest that the TSR2 was a $od at low speed, but wonderful above 350 KIAS. Was the wing too small - or the effort to obtain a clever Cl alpha curve too clever for its own good?
But it still looks terrific!!
