I'll shoot American....possibly Rocketdyne

Edit: nah,

Rolls Royce RZ2 Rocket Engine

That's right mate, the Rolls-Royce RZ-2, one of a pair (collectively known as RZ-12) that powered the Blue Streak ICBM and later the (every time successful) first stage of the European ELDO Europa space launch vehicle. Not many rocket engines achieve a 100% success rate, pity it was let down by short sighted politicians as usual :ugh:

The engine shown was recovered from the Simpson Desert after a test flight from Woomera

Lightning Mate has control :ok:

Can't monitor for too much longer - early start tomorrow.

However, wanna nuther wun?

What's new?

................TSR2...................

Well mate, I'm stopping for my evening meal now, but will continue to monitor SC JIC, but I'm for an early start too and won't have too much time for looking now, but I see kitbag's light is on :)

OK mate - enjoy your meal.

Another coming up shortly..............

Open house if I'm right

Just handed over SC control and came back to have a quick look, and to say that it seems LM is continuing the theme of projects blighted by politicians!!

However. I see that Kitbag has got there first, well done mate :D, but you should give it a name though as this hasn't got a title ;)!!

For completeness BAC TSR 2.

Is anybody else having trouble with photobucket? I've got a couple of images that may be fun to post.

Still got to be OH

Good morning India Four Two.

A little premature in posting a challenge before I have declared the winner!

LM, Sorry about that :uhoh:

I didn't notice that you posted the challenge. I was mislead by Kitbag's post!

I have deleted my post.

No problem.

Kitbag is indeed the winner and has declared OH, so please throw yours up again.

LM, Thanks. You can go weapons tight now. ;)

I see front ends are posted occasionally, so here's one that is a bit the worse for wear.

Boeing B-52 wreckage,Hanoi Military Museum. Pratt & Whitney J57?

Hi sd,

Yes, yes, presumably. The notice in front of the display says B-52D Bomber Engine. Shot down 12 Dec 72 by a missile, presumably an SA-2 Guideline.

Over to you.

Thank you, India Four Two.
Apologies,will have to withdraw my previous challenge!
Open House

As it's still an OH, let's kick things off again!

Guessing that the odd colouring on the flat surface is due to heat, so perhaps a rocket engine on some mixed power type. Thing is, there were a lot of those in the 50/60's. Douglas Skyrocket?

Morning Kitbag,

Mixed powerplants Yes, Skyrocket No!

Do I see a rocket booster?

Can't see much of an aeroplane, so maybe a missile judging from the angle.
