XJS Designer

[LordBretSinclair]

For those interested there is an interesting programme about Malcolm Sayer, the designer behind the C, D, E, XJ13 and XJS on BBC Radio 4 at 9pm on Wednesday entitled An Aeronautical Genius

Good spot! Thanks for the heads up, I'll look foward to that.

[XJ13]

I'm not sure how much Sayer was involved with the XJS other than some early concept sketches? He suffered his first heart-attack in 1968 and finally passed away in 1970. The XJS wasn't launched to the public until 1975.

Whatever, here is a link to the BBC R4 programme on YouTube complete with some pictures to look at while you listen. Please excuse my amateurish attempt!
