Off tomorrow for a five day break - see you all on Sunday.

Employment ends next Tuesday midnight, so will have lots of time to play and sleeve.

I feel a 2012 Christmas special coming on - a hybrid aeroplane comprising parts of several - the winner is the first to get all the separate parts. Does this appeal to you?

Anyone need the services of a graphics illustrator/technical author?

I would say Vultee Valiant but I'd only be cribbing the answer from "Challenge" so OPEN HOUSE if correct!!

Martin are you a member of Key Publishing? Would you be able to post on this thread?

Maybe I should know it... - Key Publishing Ltd Aviation Forums

Pretty sure it's the Koolhoven FK.56

Good enough Graeme. It's the Wolfsberg-Letov Corvus 1F, a development of the original Raven.

Dunno mate.

Sleek, definitely, but not American. European design.

Like your style, but this is not French, not a turboprop and is from the 2000's

Incidentally built as both fixed or retractable u/c.
