The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Thanks Robert - quite obscure that one.
Here's a handsome floater, all spruced up but missing its nacelles. Had an interesting history too..........:guinness:

One of Chris' famously minimalist answers ! The Nanok indeed - my little clue of the stout glass :guinness: referred to the fact that it became the private 'air yacht' of the Honourable Arthur Guinness !
 
After 3.5 years on 402 will be flying Swearingen Merlin next week. Nice to have press./autopilot/heat/turbine again.

This aircraft has had it's brothers in here before

Indeed, a Supermarine that was neither a floater or a fighter - the wee Sparrow.

Over to France, I think - :very_drunk:
