| Looks like a pretty decent collection... And how about that wind tunnel model! How cool would that be to have something like that? Great Photos, thanks for sharin' them!

| Yeah... lakeland. The wind tunnel model was very cool... I bet HH himself handled it. The XFV was quite a suprise... I think it's the only one. I was so use to seeing the Sea Dart at the San Diego museum that I bearly noticed it.. but you are right. It's pretty darn rare! |

| Again, great shots mate. I wonder if the XVF jockey (Skeets somebody or other ?) had a big 'post-it' note on his panel saying 'Caution, land upright on tail !'

  You should check out the San Diego museum. Theirs a sea Dart on static there. It's a nice little museum. They had a fire a few years back that destroyed some rare birds. . Last edited by comiso90; 06-22-2009 at 11:36 AM. | |
