"Rolls-Royce Avon RA.28 power-plant"....

The cheat is the missing engine!

I'm lost.....:}

The other aircraft is Concorde

Hi graeme. The first clue I got was Yeovilton. Based on you getting the maker but it is not a Hunter it must be the Hawker P.1052 and the afterburner in the second.photograph is that used on Concorde.

Thanks west lakes that was a very interesting challenge. I should watch out Avia Quiz might be after you to join them.

I visoted for the first time last week and couldn't resist that!

I was interested to see 002 as the last time I saw her was a as child in Blackpool whilst she was on her farewell tour. I'v'e got a B&W photo of her flying along the coast somewhere.

Thanks west lakes that was a very interesting challenge.
Ditto! :ok:

Very nice looking museum.

The one that impressed most is one part called the flight deck experiance where you are on a simulated carrier flight deck. The most impressive bit being the smell of burnt jet fuel after a "take off"

I know the museum well. I used to work in Gazelle House on the other side of the road from the FAA Museum for a number of years.

Noyade 13th Sep 2011 03:46

Maybe the F-4 Phantom?

evansb 13th Sep 2011 11:47

Noyade is correct.:ok: The McDonnell RF-4E Phantom II. Your turn.

Noyade 13th Sep 2011 12:11

Thanks Brian. I too initially thought the Mighty Voodoo. So, we have a new ID thread? :)
