This has to be one of the most beautiful planes in all of aviation.

I actually met one of the primary designers who now lives in Long Beach CA. I worked on his computer and learned some fascinating details about the plane and its history.

Anyways here is the TSR2. This model is from Alphasim.

and some bonuses

Stunning, love the 9th one! 8) Another good old 'Successfull British Flop'! Would have beaten all rivals at the time but damn politics killed her. Note the wing design, taking advantage of 'compression lift' at supersonic speeds. It had probably only been discovered the previous year!

You've truely managed to portray this piece of british excellence in all of her glory! It is always hard to take shots that really show the true beauty of the plane and also make it fit in the surroundings. Thus create a fitting shot (so to speak)

Marvelous work!
