Aviation Historian 38 / P.Stoddard - Sharpening the Scimitar
Регистрационный номер : VX138 [2] The sole Supermarine Type 525, VX138, was the true genesis of the Scimitar, fitted with swept wings and conventional swept tail surfaces, in contrast to the Type 508’s straight-tapered wings and butterfly tail. The 525 made its first flight on April 27, 1954, in the hands of Supermarine test pilot Mike Lithgow, but was lost in a fatal crash while on a test flight from Boscombe Down on July 5, 1955.
