I hope all these are easily publicly accessible, i.e. with defined opening hours, or can be seen from roads etc. I hope, too that they are all whole airframes; I've consciously avoided cockpits, wings etc. Some locations have been tightened with the help of GoogleEarth, where the Meteor is in the open.TSRL (talk) 10:27, 18 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Does anyone know for sure where I-027 is now? Was the final destination Villa Reynolds? TSRL (talk) 17:50, 19 March 2010 (UTC) There is no sign of it on GoogleEarth Images of the Air Base, though the Lincoln and the Skyhawk are there; there is what might well be an empty plinth. Perhaps not yet back from the restorers.Reply
near end of career (notice A-4) [1], as it was a decade ago, [2] and how it is now [3] at Santa Romana — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.18.113.222 (talk) 20:19, 14 October 2011 (UTC)Reply


We've got a decent set of pics, but one of the Australian F.8 in flight (plannish) would be good. TSRL (talk) 22:25, 19 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

The article says this will be painted as FMK-Q and provides a source, but A-B Aviation World 2011-9 p. 126has it as FMK-O. Watch to see which is right!TSRL (talk) 19:28, 13 September 2011 (UTC) The article is right, as the photos from Duxford October 2011 [4] show.TSRL (talk) 07:38, 4 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

The lede says there are five, but the body lists two in the UK and one each in Australia and the USA. Is there another one and if so, where? Mr Larrington (talk) 20:16, 23 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
