Anyway, is it the Legrand-simon LS.60 mate?
That's the one Graeme Interesting history having been designed as a submission for a French light aircraft competition for the local flying clubs. However there was insufficient funding and only the one aircraft was produced. It actually was mentioned in relation to a challenge on the original SC forum!

Google Mercedes SLS convertible AMG
Impressive and quite "retro" in some respects. My favourite will always be the R129 models - obviously not as quick as the AMG but very stylish.

You got one to post David?

I found another one today

Looks to be quite a wing span there although it may be the camera angle. A European design David?

That's the one (aka the HP-S) - an unsuccessful attempt to produce a fighter for the US Navy. Thought it seemed appropiate after David's challenge

Your control Graeme.
