I agree, but luckily for me, I saw one at an airshow something like 39/40 years ago. I can still picture it quite clearly now, it certainly left its mark on me.

Fantastic link Terry , lets hope they succeed . Like Colin i was lucky enough to see the Growler at the RAF Finningley airshows many moons ago , seems incredible to think it was in service until 1991 !! We knew how to build aircraft to last back then !! cheers tony
