I'm starting to think your pile of Air Pictorial is from around the early sixties?

To put your mind at rest, Graeme, it was not in a 1990's copy!

Okay, good to know. What was your last one? 1962? Are we still there?

Razorback, inverted engine (with a long nose and cowling... how many cylinders?), taildragger, rugged construction, mains are quite forward... heavy engine?
A torque/weight monster?
