Description
The English Electric Lightening was not so much an aircraft as a rocket with a cockpit. Its fuselage housed two powerful staggered Rolls-Royce Avon jet engines that enabled it to reach 40000ft from a standstill in 2minutes 30 seconds, a feat its predecessors could not achieve years after its retirement.
Initially designed to intercept bombers at high altitude and get there quickly, this cold war fighter jet was not just devastatingly fast but had beautifully balanced controls and gave excellent feedback to the pilot making it an aviator’s delight. Experiencing a standing take off and steep climb into the heavens has left many in awe.
Cabernet Sauvignon is often referred to as the King of red grapes. Commanding, charismatic, and often made to age beautifully. This wine does not rely on its tannic power to beguile, it has deft touch and elegance to showcase its breadth of talents and taste.
