Morning TC.

Could it be a Morane Saulnier N Bullet replica?

morning LM,

Not to sure about the replica bit; but it certainlly purports to be a Morane Saulnier Type N, so that's close enough for me!

Well timed mate! I'm just off to work now and going to be very busy today with new building details and meetings, catch ya later if possible!

Thanks TC.

Another good start to the day, but somehow I don't think it will be like yesterday - there's nobody on this morning so far.

I hope RD will pitch up soon and that you will be able to sneak in some breaks.

In the meantime:

That didn't last long did it. The Shorts PD-13, one of the contenders in the program that resulted in the Buccaneer.

Nearly done now, will be off as soon as we've resolved the last problem in the new building where the contractors have cast-in some pipe access in the floor-slab on the wrong side of a wall

I see you have some company now, RD and Ton are on the active list when I just came back and it looks like WK may be more involved soon. Now where's skytrain for your latest?

Putting my light off now, will be back later when I get home. Cheers

Thanks LM. Chinook yesterday brought temps to plus 10. Short lived, as temps
will dip to minus 8 tomorrow and minus 16 by Monday. Back to plus 9 and sunny by Friday. The usual winter wx in the lee of the Rockies. Here is the next challenge:

Later than anticipated, high winds causing havoc with my connection and only just been able to get on the internet, but who knows how long for??

Good afternoon evansb, regarding your silhouette, as I would have thought something like that would have considerable stagger if it's a bipe and what we can see of the struts doesn't indicate that, I think I'll ask is it a parasol-wing? Single seater? Classified as a racer?
