Description
Sadly, this is the only airworthy single-seat example of this pioneering British jet fighter left in the world. It was flown by 'MIG-15 killer' Sgt George Hale during the Korean War.
See HERE for a very cool model made of this old flyer! The info on the page is also a great read.

very beautiful airplane!!
Last of its' kind still flying. Really fine shot and your link adds a fascinating bit of history. Nice!!!
Stunning capture my friend.
And one of the first. Excellent capture.
Very cool capture, Andrew
I like the reflections down the side.
Great shot of this old bird.
You get such great shots of these planes--this is super!!
Looks like an Mk6 or Mk8.. There are a couple of the Night Fighter varients flying in the UK but they are nothing like this! A brilliant plane, not as fast as its rivals but packing 4 20mm Cannon and build like a brick sh*t house! Thanks mate! Rob
I like this tight crop and the reflections. Lots of zoom-worthy detail too! Clive
Sweet link and information. Super shot of the last of the Meteors. Dana
