They're starting to all look the same to me mate!
Something from the 7 series...? The struts on the Scout look too thick?

Locking it in as a Wibault 7 Series. That covers everything!

Looks like you two have been working hard whilst I've been away.

Now, where is WK when you need him?

I tell you what though.

The rudder on the challenge does not run to the top of the fin. It does on the Wibault. Mind you, we have to consider who drew these 3-views in the first place, and we know how inaccurate some web stuff can be.

You should see the garbage written about the Lightning!

Hi Noyade,

You have control, Sir!

Don't know yet....only just starting!

Incidentally I had no idea Top Gear had such a following down under.....and I just read that the Top Gear magazine is the top sellling mens mag there.

Now onto your latest....in the nicest sense it looks like one of Rolf Harris's quick sketches!! It does look familiar.......are those wing tanks?

They're certainly tank like appendages but I don't know if they contain fuel...

Dozens of photos on the net....I'll see if I can find out.
