All alone Reg!!
Hopefully HP and Ton will be online soon, maybe skytrain too if his current hotel is up to scratch!
The word sister implies a family member, so it is another Blackburn type or project, probably a naval type? Are they speedbrakes/flaps, so possibly a dive bomber?
It doesn't look like a Firecrest and the only listed one I can't find any details of is the B-52 to T.7/45, which wasn't built, and all the later types have C/R props
I've just finished for the day and am off home soon, I will be back then for another look if it hasn't gone (connection permitting)!!

Hello everybody!
Busy day today...
Reg, what are those long lines protruding from wing t/e? I'm wondering...
Maybe we shouldn't exclude counter-rotating props after all... some have a really short prop cone.
Or it could just be another manufacturer.

Yes TC. Looks like everybody has taken their sleeping bag and umbrella and gone to the streets to be ready tomorrow, or whenever something worth celebrating is to be seen.
Kid sister refers to role. Handley-Page slats and large double-slotted flaps. Not British, though.
Oh HappyPass, I see you now. Refer to the above with your question.
