I'd Second that, as the SE5a had a Bristol (?) Viper engine

Thanks for the information guys, the engraving makes it look obvious now, but when you know nothing to start with its hard to know where to start, anyway thanks again.

We've all overlooked obvious. This was kinda funny, like, who is buried in Grant's tomb.
