I know you probably can't or won't say but I'm thinking along the lines of TSR.2 or EE P.1...

...time will tell.

No real restrictions on what we can say, but at the moment the lack of current photos meant that we needed a different way to make the announcement and perhaps have a bit of fun at this festive time!

Post-Christmas we may be able to visit the exhibit and get some up to date pictures.

None of those airframe types are correct.

Twin stick is an interesting description but not a Phantom – we have a couple of Phantom items already: the ex-Wattisham Sim in Hangar 1 and the FGR2 cockpit from XV490, which is currently being repainted.

So something that might not straight away be thought of as a training aircraft perhaps?

Go on give us another clue, I love a quiz at Christmas ;)

It's great to see some of you engaging in this bit of festive fun that is our #NAMXmasTease :thumb:

Our words have been chosen quite carefully and another clue will follow later today.

Oo'er thats not easy. I doubt I'll be able to guess I might have to wait and see it with my own 'mince pies' :unsure: (I'll get my coat)

How about something helicopter related, perhaps Sea King. Three Kings SeeKing something :whistle: :whistle:

We wish! ;)

Plus I can see how you got to that conclusion – but it’s not correct.

The #NAMXmasTease clue was a bit more subtle, but perhaps your suggestion adds to our clue!! :ninja:
