Haven't posted anything for a while, these were taken recently, so can you identify the kites from the cockpits?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Concord
Constellation? No clue, but it is green and has 4 engines
I'm guessing Dehavilland DHC-7. It's yellow, the throttle is up top and there are 4 engines
and I was going to say Nimrod on this one as well, or maybe it's a VC-10. Definitely looks british.

Well the first one was nice and easy, you're getting close with #4. So far I'm not impressed....

3. Absolutely buggered if I know!

Nicely done Matt, in fact the Comet was open for the first time in over a decade when I was at Duxford and took that shot. Okay so still number three to get...

So the "Duxford" helped and after a quick look through my own pictures..........Number 3 is an Avro York Cool
