My visit to MAN was aborted due to terrible weather so I settled for a visit to the Museum of Science and Industry. I am not so interested in photographing aeroplanes preserved indoors but this museum is really superb. This is the seventh pre-production example used primarily for testing and training. Preserved since 1968 it is displayed in immaculate condition.

One of the most unusual exhibits at the RAF Museum, this Belvedere spent most of its short service life between 1962 and 1969 with 66 Sqdn in the Far East. Of the 26 built, three survive; the other two are at the Helicopter Museum at Weston-Super-Mare and the Museum of Science & Industry in Manchester

Thunderbirds are go? The Belvedere must be one of the quirkiest jet age aircraft to have reached operational service - 26 copies were built. Its impression of great size is mostly through clumsy design - it carried the same payload as a an early CH-46 Sea Knight or S-61.
