Question: Have you worked with any old war planes?

Edward Taylor answered on 20 Mar 2013:

Unfortunately not, we don’t use any of that technology any more on any of our aircraft, but if someone paid me to I probably would! I think it was probably world war 2 aircraft which first got me into aerospace engineering. Funnily enough both my Grandfathers were involved in old war planes during the war, one helped to develop the Spitfire and the other used to be a navigator onboard Halifax Bombers.
