So, should we be still looking for a British solution...in a British Museum?

Reheat, Sapphire? An unusual fit; – lets try a Hunter test aircraft with Sapphire or Avon, with reheat.
For the first jet pipe – it’s long, and not a true circular fuselage – Swift?

As an alternative, possibly linking the suggestions above - Supermarine 525.

Yes that is correct but you might have crossed too many aircraft off the list!

G'day Mel, I thought the HP.115 was eliminated when sabredog mentioned it above?

So maybe...

BAC 221?
Hawker Hunter?...

Fleet Air Arm Museum?



Hunter butt....



"Name That Tail Pipe" ?
Or "Plug that Butt!"....
