Oh, sorry, yes, back to the challenge!

As you say, not a Lancair.

and don't bother looking at Aerofiles!
That doesn't necessarily mean it's not American.

You wouldn't want me to make it too easy, but its not from the US.

Out for an hour or so now, so will catch up later.

Ahh. This time I remembered to put a worm on the hook.

Trouble is, I'm going home shortly and now everyone knows where to go.

Home now.

An hour has passed and nothing? This is obviously a tough nut to crack.

Off on my travels again.

Good evening Ken,

Could it be the ACS-100 Sora ?

A "Brazil Nut" is very tough to crack, thanks LM!

If correct, please declare Open House as I'm off in half an hour!

Right Ken,

There's only one place left to visit - THE WINE RACK.

A "Brazil Nut" is very tough to crack, thanks LM!
Any time TC.

Good call SincoTC , it is the ACS-100 Sora from Brazil....not often a current production aircraft appears on the forum!

Sorry LM...guess as you feared the clue helped others....!! Must be time for a glass or two!



SincoTC has declared Open House.

In case you all get bored with that one, may I ask the erudite and talented players to help me with a genuine problem, which is not a challenge.

Is anyone able to identify this helicopter for me?

























No NO.....the helicopter....the helicopter....THE HELICOPTER....dammit!

I see before mine eyes some round shaped pieces of ye ancient cork.

Because of mine age and experience I am able to note that these seem to be twice, nay thrice, the actual number.

I must therefore lay down my weary head to suffice myneself for tomorrow - I know these things to be in the way of the great God LM.
