Facinating look at a really unique airplane. Too bad about all the rude, ignorant people who insisted on getting in the way. 🙄

Incompetent fool.

[@kamran102]

How that thing can fly is a mystery. But with enough horsepower...

[@RockinRedRover]

during early trials one of the prototypes lost the outer sections of both wings, yet it was flown back home safely. The Gannet flew due to being a very good aircraft design, not just by having powerful engines (it could fly comfortably on just the one engine btw)

Hey, blind guy with your back to the camera, do you mind....!
