No, not a torpedo carrier. It was designed as a private venture. It did not have much success in the UK. Several Mks were tested. A later Mk was sold abroad under a different name to a couple of countries. One of these countries used the aircraft to carry under wing mounted bombs.

Sorry asw28-866 Capatain Airclues has it. It was the cockpit of a Vickers Vixen. As used by the Chilian Air Force.

Is that the general case i.e no suitable photographs or do people think the thread has lost it's appeal? I have several photographs yet but I do not want to upset people by jumping in and posting them.

Well I think people still seem to like having a go, so I'd post what you have... :ok:

I don't have any to post (and I'm not very good anyway, but I enjoy a challenge!)

Mel.

I don't think it's a case of the thread loosing its appeal.

As the time has past the pictures have become more obscure. I personally don't have a clue about the older cockpits, hence no postings from me for a while.

But look at the number of viewings each day. There are loads. So people must be still interested.

Vickers Virginia?

edited to say changed my mind and now think it may be a Vickers Vulcan?

MReyn24050 12th Apr 2006 14:59

Clint
Many thanks for your comment and re-assurance. I just didnt want people to think I was trying to hog the posting as I have posted several recently.
682al
Sorry neither the Vickers Virginia nor the Vulcan.

It is a British aircraft.

jabberwok 12th Apr 2006 22:08

Only a guess but I'll say Vickers Vernon so we can rule out the whole trio..

I'm still interested in this thread but, like Treadders, I've run out of shots to post.

MReyn24050 12th Apr 2006 22:22

Sorry not the Vickers Vernon, this is from a different British Manufacturer.

jabberwok 13th Apr 2006 02:49

Supermarine?

MReyn24050 13th Apr 2006 08:34

Not Supermarine either

asw28-866 13th Apr 2006 11:20

Handley Page Heyford?

I for one still enjoy the chase, even if I never get it right!

'866':ok:

682al 13th Apr 2006 12:26

Armstrong Whitworth Argosy?

MReyn24050 13th Apr 2006 13:00

asw28-866

Sorry :ugh: not the Handley Page Heyford.

682al is correct it is a photogrpah of the first Armstrong Whitworth Argosy :ok:

682al 13th Apr 2006 13:39
