I have a poor quality photo of what I believe is a Mk IV. Are yopu interested?

They certainly were innovative at Westland and in something of an irony they are the last independent remaining because of that. The fact that they made the decision to give up fixed wing to go into helicopters was because of their desire not to be subsumed into a larger less independent aircraft conglomerate which to them would be a decidedly less innovative organisation.

Really amazing! Years before the American flying-wing airplanes were cratering desert landscapes, these guys were doing stunt-plane in them.

Variable sweep wings, adjustable in flight, is there anything they didn't invent at Westlands?
