If it hasn't been mentioned yet ..
Mine would have to be the AVRO ARROW..





Its iconic design revolutionised modern day war craft..

It also marks the moment in history when the Canadain Government,basiclly, told Canadians that it has to be imported to be any good..and tore the Arrow apart

And they were right ..the bulk of the Avro Arrow team were imported by other nation's and went on to build some of the best equipment the world has ever seen,  land breaking accomplishments ..including Nasa and putting men on the moon..

sorry MC I beat you to it - it was one of my three favourites never built with the TSR2 amd Saunders Roe SR177 - all designed for a purpose
and found to be excellent at it and all scuppered by the American aircraft industry to be replaced by second rate aircraft which in most cases cost us more.
But what do politicians know about ships and planes.

Yes the Avro was as all suggested forefront of its design and shame it wasnt the world beater it could have been . Reminds me of the Leyland P52 in
Australia never made the cut.
Anyhow here is a bit of Technology for us and I dont know if its a favourite yet as I havent Flown it, it,s hanging on the wall until I decide but it is a fair size model and 4 channel with a bit of speed in the ducted fan.

Just seen your 'What's your favourite Aircraft' post.
 
For me it is the B25 Mitchell.  What a great aircraft that was, it had good looks and was so virsatile (ok so I can't spell!!) .  There are still a number flying in the States, you can even get to fly in one if you have a spare $250, or $400 in the co-pilots seat.
 
Commercial airliners, the 747 is my choice, they are as solid as a rock.

The USA is the place to be if you want to get up close.  I have been in a Shackleton, a B17, a B25, a Heinkel 111, a Lancaster, all of them still airworthy at the time.  There are no barriers at Airshows in the States, you can look into the cockpits of the small aircraft like the Spitfire, Hurricane, Me 109, Zero, Corsair, etc. etc. etc.   It was well worth every penny of my trips over there.

I saw a documentary on the 747 and in an interview with the first test pilot he admitted to taking that plane into a full barrel roll. There is no footage of that from the ground, but he was banned from ever doing it again. That would have been a sight to see.

Think you will find that it was a 707 not a 747 - and the pilot was Tex Johnson, chief test pilot for Boeing.........and yes he got a bollocking!!!

I dont doubt it...............but there is no reference to anyone performing a roll in a 747 in any of my reference books on Boeing - nor can I find anything on the 'net. However.....for the 707.....a very famous incident.....

If you can find anything I will gladly doff my cap to you...

Am I crazy, or does that look ALOT like a cross between a Mosquito and a Messerschmitt 110?  %%   :D
