Hi all.

Just think if TSR 2 had happened we wouldn't be playing with Vulcans and the like but TSR 2s instead.
Now thats a thought. :)

Superb video, but what a tragedy it is only a simulation. It was an awesome aircraft.

I started work at Bristol Siddeley about three months after the cancellation decision - you can imagine what the atmosphere was like.

I like the quote in Wiki -

Sir Sydney Camm wrote:All modern aircraft have four dimensions: span, length, height and politics. TSR-2 simply got the first three right.

One Olympus 301 has twice the power of a complete F1 starting grid.
XM655 has four of them, all serviceable.
