Which aeroplane was at different times known as 'Valiant' and
'Victor', but was eventually called by its original name?

Sorry for the delay - laid up with a dodgy stomach -
Answer is the Spitfire, the 20 series Spitfires were to have been
called Victor, and later Valiant, luckily common sense for once
prevailed.
