Very interesting but a sad end for a Comanche.
They must be Ute arrows.
pb84,
I have to say, when I saw your title, I thought I would be reading about unhappy experiences south of Hadrian's Wall!

The name "Comanche" is from the Ute name for them, kɨmantsi (enemy).

Nope, always found the natives down in Englandshire damned friendly and rather helpful especially when I needed something fixed while passing through. 3 that come to mind are Beverly, Shoreham and top marks to the field just east of Yoevilton air base whose name escapes me but the owner could not help enough when I diverted in there to fix a dodgy fuel pump prior to coasting out on my trip to San Sebastián.

Think it is a mock up, but I seen a vid were an airplane flew over an uncontacted tribe in the Amazon and they were firing arrows at the plane. The fools, didn't they realize the 1st world could have introduced them to our version of democracy, misold PPI's, Jeremy Kyle and at least 4 untreatable strains of the clap!

Looks like a mock up. The undercarriage doesn't look right, no scissor links, no gear doors. I wonder how much of the rest of it is just made up.
