where and what is this aircraft

[Mike]

Do you have a photo of it?

[beefsteak]

It's the new top secret stealth bomber, "Scotch missed" ( SIC)

[andygoole]

Reading that as a scot it should probably read "Scotch Mist"
Appropriatly meaning something that does not exist

Only thing I can think of is a Valiant, but we would be able to help you better if you have a photo of the jet.

Hope this helps

Best rgds

Good one Ian, I see what you did there !

Could the OP be thinking about the Valiant, the nose being slightly similar to the Vulcan?

Maybe this post should be moved to the Mess due to the complete lack of any images so far?

Maybe it was an Avro 707 ? Looks like a mini Vulcan .

To be pedantic it should actually be written in italics and is short for "sic erat scriptum", that's if I remember correctly from those hideously boring Latin lessons all those years ago.

I do not believe you found Latin boring, Mike, and I would certainly not class you as a pedant

I loved every smack with the wooden board rubber of it (Latin, that is)

Cheers
