Thanks again Chevvron , te 2nd picture down is actually the Marshall's of Cambridge trail meteor but in the picture it is at Farnborough.And I have a feeling that it is WA662 as it as a smallish randome at the rear which is present on other pictures of WA662.
Back to pressure trails I'm still very curious about it as the most famous one must be comet.However I'm more so interested in later tests this website has some decent pictures but its description is very scientific and not to
digestible.THE EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH TO AIRCRAFT STRUCTURAL RESEARCH, THE FIFTEENTH WRIGHT BROTHERS LECTURE so if there is any info anyone knows about pressure trails.Also included this fantastic cross-section from the Eagle which I scanned in of course don't use the image anywhere else.
