Interesting to see how the wings clip in place like some huge snap together kIt.
I was quoting Sir Stanley Hooker - but then, what did he know.
Sorry Eric, I'm completely lost. I wasn't making any comment about what you or Stanley hooker said.

I'm just saying that these mock ups have wings that slot onto the frame with dodgy looking iron male and female connections, which are nothing like the real aircraft. As seen from the wing side profile in the photos.

I smell a rat - looks like Spit is being taken away for interrogation by Schmitz smile

And where are its wings?
Got the new stealth wings.

You can see them if you squint and look sideways.
That is not a Spitfire wing.

You're obviously not seeing the stealth one. It's pink, can you see it now?

Got my curiosity now! Eric, is that fuselage on the Queen Mary and Avro Anson?
