Excellent pics MikeH, would love to see others you may have. The Victor looks really clean actually. I'm thinking that it is more than coincidence that I have been posting pics by Mike Hall!

Yes thats sounds like the case. Be interesting to know if anyone has ejected in similar straight and level circumstances, but still ended up severely injured... and from which aircraft?!

Centre section - there are parts from two Whitley's here - the upper and lower components that make up the rather boxy centre section. This is the next item on the agenda, after the front turret and we took delivery of the centre section jig recently.

More likely the Heinkel He-70 that was Rolls-Royce's all-purpose test bed
for Kestrels and their derivatives from the late 1930s onward. I'm always
willing to be proved wrong, though.

Finally, there is something here at Old Warden to keep everyone happy, the Swiss Garden is included in the admission price on Airshow days and is well worth a visit (plus it keeps the better half happy). It provides some excellent photographic opportunities.

Thanks for these, the Komet looks great after its re-paint and the Me-410 looks like it could be at Legends next year !
If memory serves, I think Moggie C has sat in the cockpit. I think I saw a mention on an earlier post.
To the extreme right of the Airfix Spitfire picture you can just make out a tail, is there something next on outside display or was it passing traffic? Just curious, ...

Don't know the location, but they look like standard anti-sub rockets (not packs, really) discussed recently in the Swordfish/MAC Ship thread , so I'd guess a Coastal Command armament testing station, or the A&AEE...
