Supermarine Swift 1953 Schneider Trophy Winner

[MilitaryAircraft101]

You and I must be on the same wavelength! These are wonderful. This must have competed in the Unofficial Schneider Race in 1953, as it was not held in '51 and '53 due to the Korean war.  Really well done.

looking forward to seeing your other race Alt Histories/Profiles    ,  not wanting to rain on your parade but thats the great thing about What-Ifs, What-If there was an Official Schneider Race in 1953, then the Supermarine Swift was the Winner    alternatively as there were a lot of world record changes that year the winner could have been the 
Hawker Hunter F Mk3,
the Douglas F4D Skyray or
the North American F-100 Super Sabre?

All three are part of the "future" races. F-100, F4D and Hunter in 1955, with the Hunter in 1957 and 1959 as well.

Gold and blue really do look great on a Swift.
