Not another variable incidence jobber.....
Edited to say, it aint span either, so not much left to play with is there!
Edited again to say that I thought it's about time you headed for home
Right mate, I'm home now.
So, not lateral angle, not incidence, and not span.
You're right - there's not much left.
I've just started to look at that rear fuselage profile.......and the front right glazed area........

Cannot stay complete silent .
An experimental sibling of Curtiss Shrike (A-8 to 12) to test variable wing angle.....
Edit: Two-blade propeller does not fit very good for that one.....

Sorry Reg, it's not that and I believe LM has covered all those "angles"
Sorry LM, it's not dihedral either, I think that leaves only one option, but keep looking, you're in the right area!! I recall that we had a similar one a while ago, when that little PITA ChazChaz was about!! Shouldn't really say that should I, but he won't mind....
Edited to say I'm off home at 7:15 and will put my light back on when I get there (about half an hour).

That's the one LM, I've got it down as the Bakshaev RK League 7, variable area telescoping wing.
Apparently the mechanism worked better in the air than it did on the ground, much to the relief of the TP I'd say!!
No need to hurry home now is there!
Lightning Mate has Control

Was (again) fixed into one idea - this time the struts...

Thanks LM,
A worm for the early birds, or an evening snack for the Wizard!
Will monitor from work, back soon!
