I can't see a plane there - is it on a carpentry bench behind the aeroplane?

Excuse the incorrect terminology i do apologise but "name that aircraft" doesnt have the same effect! lol

However it does look like its made from wood! But ive been assured it is real!!

Scotty, I'm 90% certain that the pic is of a mock-up (so not real) of the BAe P.110 (there were several iterations), which - to grossly oversimplify - is a precursor of what ultimately evolved into the Typhoon.

Archimedes......Thats why you invented the screw!!!!

You sir are simply an untapped fountain of knowledge, many thanks!

Yes if santa brought one of those id be more then pleased. However i wonder what type of license you would require for that aircraft!

[BluntM8]

Consider, if you will, the offspring of an illict affair between and F-18 and a Rafale....


That is the result, in you photo.

(And it's hideous...)
