A couple of days back I posted about the Shooting Star (or the Lockheed T-33A, as it was formally known), today I have a picture of a Meteor. A Gloster Meteor NF-14.
The Gloster Meteor was the first British jet fighter, and the only one to see service during World War II. Several versions were produced, and the NF-14 was designed as a night-fighter variant to supercede the DeHavilland Mosquito. The NF-14 entered service in 1954 but was already being replaced by more advanced aircraft just a couple of years later.

A truly revolutionary aircraft when they were introduced….still in service when my Dad was in Korea in 1951-53. There is still an airworthy example in Australia which I have seen fly a couple of times!

It’s always nice to see vintage aircraft such as these in an airworthy state.
