[meleagertoo]

A prototype but one that saw significant service.

[sycamore]

Avro Anson...?

[meleagertoo]

Sorry, a one-off prototype that saw significant service.

Cockpit view

Looks a bit like a Beaufighter but perhaps too large so maybe a Brigand?

[meleagertoo]

I say again. A one-off. There only ever was one of these.
And you're all way out on the timeline.

"And you're all way out on the timeline."

Post 1960 first flight?

[meleagertoo]

Only just. 1961

[sycamore]

SR-N1 Hovercraft...?

[meleagertoo]

Sycamore, SRN1 was a single-seater, wasn't it?

[sycamore]

mel,pictures I have seen show at least 2 seats,and a crew of 3 were onboard when it copied Bleriots flight..,so your pic may be of something else...?

[Self loading bear]

Come on Sycamore, you have got to up the stakes a bit.

[meleagertoo]

Sycamore, you're asbolutely right about the SRN1 cockpit having two pilots seats, but it isn't the answer.

I deduce that SLB has it by "upping" the stakes...

Here's SRN1 looking vety 'experimental'.

[meleagertoo]

If SLB is going to hang back perhaps Sycamore will look at this again...

[Self loading bear]

I will hover around a bit more. Sycamore did the hard work so he may take it.

[Asturias56]

so what is it?

[dixi188]

SRN2? Off the back of others ideas.

[meleagertoo]

dixi has it - the SRN2.
I thought the wipers on the side screens would give its nature away instantly, and there aren't many to choose from!
So close sycamore, just rather too many engines!

[dixi188]

Thanks for the help with the SRN2.
This picture is from a book I was given when I was about 6 or 7 and made me want to be a Flight Engineer. I made it when I was 37 and had 20 years in the middle seat.
