Looks like a Hunter to me (but I have been proved wrong before!! )

Nope your correct , I have now made a new folder called

Hunters in Low-rez

All the placemarks will soon be updated because the whole collections looking very messy. I have also added the Hunter at Raf valley thanks Tom.

It looks nearly right and measures well. The front fuselage seems too wide, so I think it may be a T7, the trainer variant of the Hunter.



Cheers

Frank

You're quite correct, it's a Sabre.

There is a Hunter based at Ardmore though, housed in a hanger about 320 yards south of the Sabre.

I don't know a whole lot about this Hunter other than it appears in the odd airshow here and it once landed on it's external fuel tanks when the pilot/owner forgot about the landing gear. That was 3-4 years ago now.

I trust Josie won’t mind me posting here but this is the most likely topic to find someone in the know.

Just over an hour ago I saw my first in-flight Hunter; quite a thrill. The placemarks tell the story.

Has anyone any idea whose Hunter it is and what it’s up to in the South of France? Perhaps where it might be seen on the ground here?

Hello, Josie
I found another Hunter at Bournemouth International Airport, Sorry if you have it alredy (there isn't any placemarks that I can see). If you use these co-ordinates you'll zoom right into the centre of it, 50 47' 14.38"N, 1 50'16.41"W. It could be one of three, J-4083 (G-EGHH), G-HVIP (ex J-4208) or XL567.
