Hmm, obvious first question has to be is it worth trawling Aerofiles?

Trying to get the perspective sorted in my mind from the two possible attitudes! Judging by the relative size of the spats and the windscreens, I'm thinking the photo used shows the aircraft on the ground and is a three-quarted rear-view, but I'm confused by the undercarriage legs immediatly beneath the pilot?

Edit: second thoughts! Wing-tip "bump" would mean quite a large dihedral and the tip-chord woould need to be wide from that view, so maybe it's viewed from below flying toward us, but still puzzled with that U/C leg?

Off home now, will try and get back later after I've eaten
