Absolutely true George.
Some background information:
The picture shows the Avro Ashton Mk.3 "WB493" landing at Filton in 1955.
WB493 first flew on 18 December 1951, and was delivered to the R.A.E., Farnborough, for high altitude brush wear investigations and instrument development.
It then came to the Bristol Engine Division, Filton, in 1955 as test bed for advanced marks of reheat Bristol Olympus turbojets.
An Olympus was mounted outboard of each nacelle and in 1957-58 the aircraft flew with the port Olympus replaced by the Bristol Orpheus.
Your turn George!
Best regards - Mike
