Thanks Graeme - short sleeved shirt today and in a meeting very shortly, so Open House. I'll check in later and if no one else has posted I'll prep something up.

Well, if it is David, I hereby relinquish control to you as you did say Chipmunk earlier, which it basically is....?

Cheers.

Well, Graeme identified the registration albeit he didn't identify the aircraft, but it is the Aerostructures Sundowner from Australia - a somewhat heavily modified DHC-1



At Graeme's request it looks like control is with you David
