Percival Vega Gull it is, at the time of the pic it was owned by Alex Henshaw as he surveyed the Mew Gull route to Capetown and back.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

He must have ruddy good eyesight, I could only just pick out the FEA and that was only on the second time round after Quorneng mentioned it, missed it completely the first look.
Spotted it's similarity to the Mew Gull ... feel the need to go digging around again in Mum's attic.... there's a 1/4 scale up there somewhere.

FEA is all you need as at that vintage its almost bound to be G-AFEA and you just look up AFEA in the G-INFO database!

How about this one? (nearest to the camera!)

And its not a one off.

Correct :) - not too difficult as it was I think the only airliner to have its jets above the wings.

Your turn!

Thank you :)

The only reason I recognised it was because I found it while researching this one a couple of years ago...

Is it a Honda jet?

Somebody called me 'pretentious' the other day.

I nearly choked on my latte.

I was thinking Partenavia, but I can't find one that fits the pic!

even more correct :cheer:


It is indeed, I made it too easy didn't I :lol: :lol:

I've been following it's progress for a couple of years. A friend of mine works for GKN Aerospace who did the R&D on the composite fuselages, they have since won the contract to supply them for the production models.

to start with I wasn't, was just explaining how I knew about the Fokker, but then thought it might make a good subject for the guessers too.
