Greetings! :D

The Hawker Siddeley Trident is, for me personally, one of the greatest tragedies of the British aviation industry. So much was right about it, it sported highly advanced avionics with a blind landing system that was decades ahead of its contemporaries, while also providing a practical fuselage design that could easily accommodate 6-abrest seating.

Sadly, through government intervention and a fragmented design process, the Trident ended up being yet another purpose-built aircraft aimed solely to suit the needs of its main carrier, British European Airways, losing out severely to the rival Boeing 727 as it failed to provide a universal design for any occasion.
