Beautiful pictures of the Jet Provost, Lauriebe.
It struck me, that the tailplane arrangement of the Jet Provost is very similar to the tailplanes of the Fokker S-14, see enclosed pics.
Has anybody an idea if this was intentional? Did Percival and Fokker had contacts or co-operation on this subject? Or is it coincidence, same mission leading to similar configuration?
