Mystery Aircraft on 'Dragons Den'?

Post by Chris558 »

Just watching this on TV now, and every week as a sort of 'backdrop' to the programme, there is, what appears to be the extreme rear end of a fuselage mounted on a stand. There are tail-plane 'stubs' protruding out of it.

Anyone else noticed it? I wonder what it could be? :dunno:

Sorry, can't help. If I watch the programme I get the urge to kick the TV screen in, especially when Peter Jones comes into view! :poke:

Hi,

I caught a glimpse of this, it initially looked Meteor like in construction....but I could be wrong..... :doh: Any other offers ?

I have only watched the show about 3 times, and it cracks me up that after all the hard work that some and I mean some have put into the concepts and they go and :-# it up on the selling :lol: :lol: and well the presenter thats a whole new thread :lol: :lol: :lol: :think:

Regards

Andy

Whatever it is, it has a low tailplane so that rules out a Meteor.

I thought it was the tail end of the engine housing of a Meteor.....

Hi Guys

No idea what the aircraft is.

same for the "Famous" successful knobbers.

If they are so successfull why do they have to appear on such a S***e tv program.

Same reason as that Muppet Sugar.

I don't like shmoozers etc (funny how the christmas cards to his own wife are signed "Sir Alan Sugar" T**t or what).

sorry but this reality rubbish really makes me angry with the amount we are robbed for a TV licence.

Bring Back Wolfie Smith as a Revolution is what we need :poke: :lol: :lol:

Regards
Rick :worried:

It may give you some small amusement to know then Rick, that Rachel Elnaugh, who used to be one of the "Dragons" in the previous series, isnt in this one because her own business, "Red letter days" went t/u :lol:

YES! :wink:

Hoping "Sir Alan" has a nasty accident when trimming his "I sleep in a Cardboard box" beard or putting on his £20 suit.

I can wish :smile:
