6 is a Viscount...

7 may well be its big brother, the Vanguard, although I was unaware that there was only one left...

I suspect 2 is this - particularly as you're only showing the forward fuselage...

Well done charlie.
There is only one complete vanguard in existance but there are 2 cockpit sections to my knowledge, the one in the photo at East midlands aeropark and another with the complete one at Brooklands.
Just one left now, do you need a clue?

Nope, not a harrier.
Heres a clue, it will probably give it away though.
You can find them at Duxford, Cosford, Marham, Elvington and Bruntingthorpe.
