I'm always impressed at the depth of knowledge amongst our Members. :agree:
They only built two Republic Rainbow XF-12s, but many pounced quickly.
Nice to see Mick (woody901) take line honours, followed promptly by PeteP, Pete (Motormouse), Brian (Spot), Den (511Flyer), Pete (MilesMan), PaulK, Keith (Dev One), Kevin Farnell, Dale (VcTen), and Joe (blanston12).
Congratulations, All! Don't cut your fingers on the diamonds.

Thanks for your participation. :thumbsup:

Slacker! Back to action.
Eleven correct identifications, led by Keith (Dev One), who actually saw one on his way to school! :excited:
He was followed by PeteP, Mick (woody901), Eric (Tomliner), Simon (simondix), Den (511Flyer), PaulK, Chris Trott, Pete (MilesMan), Brian (spot) [who made a model of one in his youth], and Joe (blanson12).
All correct first time, so you get the big D

Thanks for being there. ;)
Plenty of pictures of the Vickers Windsor here:

Well done, Mike :)

Does anybody know of any internal shots or cut-away drawings of the Windsor ?
