That canopy looks like they ripped it off a late-war Spitfire! Impressive stuff, for those days.

Yeah, I read that part. Those guys were really geniuses- they pioneered the aerodynamics and technology we take for granted without many of the things modern designers have- high budgets, precedents in technology, etc

I’m not sure if you saw this already but there’s a nice video on the FP where Norman Dewis talks about his life as a Jaguar test driver.

This thing is getting all of the coverage lately. I just watched the XCAR video of it, if you haven’t seen it I would recommend it 100%.
