Noyade,

Of course, Ride Runner, your most recent posts are brilliant ! Noyade, recently you have carried this thread through in a superb manner ! Please keep up the excellent work ! Bri

Thanks Bri! Very kind of you. Like everyone here I thoroughly enjoy this thread! I just wish I knew more about cockpits!

If you copy to Paint and then use the "image" tab and go to "invert colours". That would get a silhouete. Then you can simply use the brush to over paint detail that you ant to hide.

Thanks Martin, I'll have a look at that !!!

Noyade Challenge

Hordern-Richmond Autoplane perhaps?

[Noyade]

Here you go. I don't mind doing them at all.

Well I'll be buggered! That quick? That easy? Is that utilising Martin's advice above or is it some sort of special program that you have on your computer?

[Noyade]

Hordern-Richmond Autoplane perhaps?

Good God Mel, it took me longer to make than the time for you to identify it!

Your control!

(Edit: And again I worked in reverse. Posted it and THEN looked at your challenge index. We've already had the Autoplane. I am a knob.)

Noyade,

I use Photoshop. Expensive but more capable and versatile than Paint.

[sablatnic]

I use Irfanview. Small, but free, and easy to use.

Noyade, PM.
PS. Tried messing about with Noyade's image in Irfanview.

[Ridge Runner]

I use Photoshop too as I use it for my photography - far too expensive for many I guess unless you have a professional/high interst need. However, Paint in MS can do what Noyade wants. It justs gets tricky when you want to reverse images etc. RR

[Ridge Runner]

Actually the Photobucket editing suite would do all the things you need. Try that after you've uploaded!

Next Challenge

Thanks Graeme it was the square cross-section that gave it away.
Here is a nice easy one. I should add it was a project.

[Noyade]

Thanks guys, all the advice is much appreciated and I will look into it but I don't want to turn the thread into an image workshop.

(Thanks sablatnic, I didn't know IfanView could do that. By the way, it's the Heston T.1/37.)

Cheers,
Graeme.

I'd say your latest is a HP "Jetstream" project. If not I'd suggest a Potez project as it has that look about it from the front. RR

[MReyn24050]

RR. This one was not the "Jetstream" project nor from Potez.

Just a hasty "lunchtime" shot in the dark, Is it the SIPA S 273 Elan ?

If Correct "open House"

[MReyn24050]

Mel's challenge

Good shooting SincoTC. It is the three view drawing of the SIPA S.373 Elan II.


The SIPA S.273 Elan appeared at the 1963 Paris Air Show as one of a number of twin-Astazou projects. It was to be powered by two Astazou X, and was intended to fill a civil requirement for a 6/8-seat pressurized twin with good airfield performance. The Elan was expected to offer a cruising speed of 330 m.p.h (531 km/h) at 19,685 ft (6000 m) and a range of 1,150 mls (1,850 km) and several versions were proposed, including ambulance, freighter, and radar and navigational trainer versions, and the long -range version Elan II with underwing drop tanks.

SincoTC has declared open house.
Mel

[MReyn24050]

As it is Open House here is another easy one to keep things moving.

[Lightning Mate]

DH9 maybe?

[Ridge Runner]

Wapiti?????

[MReyn24050]

Mel's Challenge

RR has it. They are Westland Wapitis. The caption to the silhouette photograph read:-

DEFENDING THEIR NATIVE SHORES : The " Wapitis " of No. 603 (City of Edinburgh) (Bomber)
Squadron (which had no flotation gear) 30 miles out to sea to bomb the invaders.

You have control.
