No, yes and no.

Perhaps "easy" is the wrong word and I should have said "far from exotic" or perhaps fairly common airframe.


btw, the AH was a rebuilt as the old one used to show a permanent 70 degrees of bank

It may be easy for you but I can't even see it - thank you IT Services! By the time I shamble home from le Chien et He-Vache, no doubt it will have been solv-ed!

95 Kts, 6.700 AGL (check the second ALT!!), HDG 061, 2,400 RPM - I suppose you want to know where that Cessna 140 is also headed?

Well spotted and that explains why the mags are on



Look again...it couldn't possibly be a 140






...though you may well have the manufacturer correct

Very very close.

It's a Cessna with a controllable prop and having two altimeters AND being ragged out is a big clue.









Ok it's a straight tailed 1959 C-182 jumpers for the use of.

Gruntie re pic sizing - someone put me onto http://tinypic.com/
(I hope I can mention them here - tinypic is a free site)
Anything oversize is automatically sized down to 250Kb, as long as the pic starts at a reasonable size - for example if I had a multi Mb image I would use Photoshop or Graphic Converter or whatever to resize it down a bit for a start, then let tinypic do any tidying up.

I haven't a clue what the aircraft is btw, other than it is either a gateguard or was parked very close to those trees.
