Would my Meteor F2 be of any use, only thing would be getting it there though if it would be usefull. Sea Harrier F/A3 is also available if required.

I also like the sound of Geoff's Mig 21. The Su-15 sounds good as well. Im just wondering which one has more "shock" value.

Mig-21 would be better I think as more people know what it is.

ohhhhh a souped up Lizzy.

A Bristol Hercules would get the JMNs going more than a Kestrel, I'd suggest.

Oh it's far more heretical than that..... :wacko:

I spoke with Martin on this at Telford.  The Hendon Wimpey is undergoing restoration at Cosford and I thought the link would be 'restoration complete', i.e a Wimpey with two extra donks.

And instead of a Chipmunk, what about a Magister with a canopy?
