Anyone know what this is supposed to represent, or it's significance?

It's in the yard of a Plant Hire Company.

2 points if you know where.

If you know "what" or "why", 10 House Points, because I ain't got a clue.

    I have no idea where it is but my guess would be that someone got the wrong kind of Bull for their Bull Dozer

    I think that it's a model of that WWII classic, the Moosquito.

    Are you sure? Looks more like a Moosserschmitt to me (?)

    Hi tkay

    I think the flying cow is in folklore around the world ptolomy saw 1, and possibly, being a worldwide company use the cow as a talking point?

    Hi Tikay, I'm surprised you didn't know this one.I saw this on the Dragons Den last year and it was an instant success with the panel.It's called very simply "a flying cow".It works on a radio remote control system, which can be tuned to any frequency when in use near an airport or low flying aircraft.What does it do you ask? Well it's a automated self propelled bull fertility collecter.It has a flying range of 250 miles with a top speed of 120mph at a max altitude of 1000feet.Why would anyone want this you ask?As you know Angus cows are wanted all over the world for their very tender meat and extra creamy milk. Well this "flying cow" can be on route to any farm in the UK within minutes to collect from any "in heat" Angus bull for fertilising cows in an Angus cow farm in Dorset.What happens is,when the farm location is fed into the cows onboard global position system "GPS" It can take off from the plant hire yard with its vertical takeoff thrusters,(which can be seen on your photo just above the tail of the machine) so no runway needed, which means it can land right next to the bull and can have the collection done and stored onboard in a matter or minutes.The beauty about this machine is that it can be operated by one person at the base HQ in Devon.With two infrared cameras it can be used day or night.As you can understand the most important part of the collection and delivery process is temperature control.The onboard computer monitors this exactly to 38.29 degrees C,which is critical for the safe transportation of infact any fertilising material for bull or human.So you can see why the Dragons Den jumped at this opportunity to invest their money in this remarkable machine.Hope this answers your question Tikay.
