Ok so it's a topless photo, not quite what I had in mind Neil
On the other hand going by Neil's view, grin and the other geyser straining to get a peep, maybe Mrs H is completely naked behind that door

Seamus, apart from a more attractive owner, Mrs H 400 has a pinstripe down the flanks, pay attention now.

I can't see the pinstripe down Mrs H's flank ... the door is in the way - Streaky

Lightning ... one scary aircraft !

Last time I heard so much noise - I was in a tunnel in the SEAC !

Do they still allow it to fly in Dublin ?

I think he's used one of those snow films you put in front of the lense! Just like they use in the movies and no snow settles!

So how many Lightnings are there still flying? Clarkson's got one that doesn't on his lawn. There's another one (in Beds?) that is only allowed to taxi; apparently because of planning permission - or is it certificate reasons?

Nice 400 Neil - close up on the missus please!

Sorry Steve - I will update my wedge black book accordingly... (not that sad - yet )

Still very jealous that your missus has a wedge as well Neil, can't get mine out of her VW Pram.. else another BBW would definitely be on the drive... along with a Lightning, for decorative purposes ala Clarkson of course...

No cheating on the snow front , I've got the frostbitten parts to prove it !!

Six Lightnings flying down in Cape Town , the boring CAA wouldn't allow a " Sixteen ton high speed aluminum pursuit tube " to fly on the UK register .

There are also a couple in the US which "may" fly again .
