Great shots Chris - I was once at Farnborough when both the Vulcan and the Victor were performing: beautiful to watch but the sound of the engines on full throttle got you right in the guts! Interested in your working at the Gnat factory: couple of months ago I went to our local aircraft museum, and saw a Hawker Hunter on static display which was built while I was working at the factory in Kingston, Surrey where the Hunter was in production. Eerie to think that some of the parts I worked on (mainly cockpit latch hooks and other small electroplated pieces, or first coat paint panels) are probably still in it...
