Stripped Merlin in hangar E2

Post by twinstar » Sun Aug 14, 2022 12:31 pm

Can anyone supply an identity to the stripped Merlin in hangar E2? It is in the back half of the hangar behind the gliding club aircraft.
Thanks in advance
Tony

I think there is only one tiger strip merlin and that's ZH860. Could be wrong though.

I think Twinstar means stripped back/reduced in size etc rather than stripe/paint stripes

Yes, as in it is a stripped cab, minus engines etc. Seems to be some sort of training frame. It is NOT one of the SFDO training frames.
