| Thanks. Aparently the high number of accidents in the Scimitar were caused by the relative small size of british carrier and the heavy weight of the aircraft, but not intrinsecally a bad characteritics of the supermarine fighter. Supermarine Swift F1. |

| Cool videos, CB. But the cheesy "jet engine sounds" were painful.

Other factors include the fact that she leaked like a sieve and was very maintanence heavy. Its also worth remembering that the Scimitar replaced the Sea Hawk a very small light and simple aircraft, the difference between the two was huge. | |
