Not sure about the statement "The fate of all but one aircraft was obvious" as it was not obvious to me ! perhaps this needs changing. Does anybody know what happened to XF923? MilborneOne 23:03, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

I guess it was scrapped. The text should be clearer, if this indeed was what happened. The only other possibility is that it crashed, which I don't think is the case. Graham 03:09, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Type 188 Engines

Although the article is correct in stating that DH Gyron Juniors powered the T188, the further reference to that aiding the developemnt of the "de Havilland Olympus" is erroneous. The Olympus was developed by Bristol Engines which later became Bristol Siddeley and eventually Rolls Royce.
