Stanwell,

My earlier #877 refers. Had a look at second pic (#864) of the prang. Zoomed in as far as possible, and got out trusty magnifying glass (my eyesight is not what it once was !)

Cylinder seems to have been broken off. (piston visible) But bob on this side appears to be "in", and the inner third of both the prop blades seem to be in "coarse" position.

There will be engineer hydraulic prop experts reading this. Comment ?

And isn't this a perfect example of the old jest: "Three-pointer ?"........."Yes - both wingtips and the prop !"

Danny.
