Some info

Definitely a real engine that ran (before the AfD crowd arrive). Plenty in the Flight archive including mention of an HS.136 and the Fairchild-Hiller 228 which seems to be a cancelled variant of the Fokker F28 Fellowship. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 23:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
