Could always see if R-R heritage would give us the drawings so we could resurrect the engine too. That would be fun.

isn't that many Meteor's around these days Mike, not good running ones anyway.

thing with Crusader was.......it was a shockingly poor design, so much so it killed its pilot at a (relative) slow speed

Why not build a craft from scratch that would go for the WWSR. BBP clearly the team for it. Or take over quicksilver

Always wanted to build Ken's four-point Quicksilver.
