The Handley Page HP.115 was a British delta wing research aircraft built by Handley Page to test the low-speed handling characteristics to be expected from a supersonic airliner of slender configuration. It formed part of the British supersonic aircraft research programme carried out in the 1960s and sponsored by the Ministry of Supply that eventually produced the Concorde.

Famous quotes containing the word page:
“I drink the five o’clock martinis
and poke at this dry page like a rough
goat. Fool! I fumble my lost childhood
for a mother and lounge in sad stuff
with love to catch and catch as catch can.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
