I would be Open House, but I think it should be called to Gareme, who declared Open House, so…….

I'll be back soonish. It closes at 18:00 local, and it will take anyways several visits to cover it with my walking ability now. Have been there only once before, and it is some 8 or 7 years ago.

Less than 20 km drive.

Yes, it is indeed the proposed Supermarine Type 305. RegDep got the correct answer first, so he is in control, or it is OPEN HOUSE. Whatever.

Well, it's now 1653 local time in Berlin and the museum closes at 1800 he said.

He won't be back for at least an hour and a half.

Not much going on so we should wait I feel.

Here, "Top Gun" is on Channel E4 tonight - guess who won't be watching that pile of garbage!

How's that for defending your corner mate?

Did you really mean "meanest"?

Sorry mate - didn't recognise the "from" name.

Thanks for pic. ....

Shame the oleos have lost all Nitrogen pressure - another 10 bar would raise the jet 20 cm and it would look "correct".

Evening LM,

It looks to be the Japanese Yamada No.1 Airship ?

Just finished a really long day and I am going to have something to eat and then hit the hay, so regretfully, it'll have to be an Open House if correct, sorry mate!

(Working on an 'aerodrome'. I take it marine facilities would be accepted?)
