I saw this plane fly today at an airstrip in Sweden, my first IRL of this plane, unfortunately i didn't get pictures of it flying but what a whistle it made when it overflew us.
Can anyone guess what airplane it is??





Hedge you are excluded as i'm sure you know what it is  :P


Sorry for the distant picture, for some reason the pilot decided to land on another part of the airfield than we were racing on  :grin:

I'm guessing vampire.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

My best bet would be a gloster experimental plane, might be the one that was the plane that could be the first to break the sound barrier but was denied the opportunity to do so and who's data was the background for the x1??  :confused:  :drinking:
