One of the Thulins?

BTW, have you noticed that when you Giggle our old challenges by their name, you may get our silhouettes back in the Images?

Not a Thulin mate, much closer to where you live!

Wot! No cross reference on your list (see above)?

Yes indeed! I have even found my still active challenge's silhouette in giggle images, found by the clues I'd given only a few minutes earlier; spooky or what!!!

Looked already at Friedrichshafens but maybe need to dig deeper.

Sure it's not a pusher? Like FF.1

Mission not accomplished mate!

The challenge looks like a two seater being flown solo.

I don't suppose there is much to be gained from looking at "that" site is there?

Even I can see where the prop is pointing mate.

I assume the nose is to the right and the tail to the left.........
