Reg,

I'm happy to let it stand , as I said before, many a duplicate has slipped by in the past, and as the original has gone, I see no reason to panic, especially if you have a legitimate "alternate" designation

Graeme,

No mate, always been Wagga
I didn't know that; I could have sworn that you had Melbourne on your user profile originally!! Oh well, same time zone

I agree with you, it's more the spectacle, music and history I go for, especially when you look at the thousand year old Westminster Abbey.

Secret tip please Graeme: Is your current WC the Cessna 414 of Baker Aircraft?
I'll toss some clues on there right now. Meet you there!

I'm still here mate, but struggling with my connection !

I thought that little bulge aft of the cockpit looked a bit Fantrainer..ish but now I've slowly loaded some images, I don't think so!

A clue would be useful if you want to wind it up before bedtime!!

Mate, is there any chance PPRuNe could be the problem? On the previous page no images were visible to me for some time. I thought I was going nuts because people were talking about challenges but there was nothing to see!

Not a Fantrainer. Not European....for once.

I think it may be the Web itself, so many people streaming video of a certain event in London!!

Twin-engine, USA?

Hope it works out for them...

It looks too streamlined to be the CT-114 Tutor unless it's the prototype with sensor on the nose?

Edited to say, at last managed to open Aviastar and it confirms Reg's answer

Nice flypast, but it would have better like this!

If it is a "setting" mate, then I'll have to find it and chang the value!! I've been unable to access the Fright Archive all morning and its EE window is still showing the spinning "Connecting" logo

Stop laughing Reg; I know you've got an all singing-dancing superfast DT connection you lucky bugger!!

Ain't laughing mate. Been there, seen that, spat blood……

Graeme: I think they did it on purpose .

Edit: Hat Trick: Have three challenges out at the same time! And 'Where on Earth' in JB has stalled over non-confirmation, which deprives me of a quadruple
