I looked for an angular aircraft and a dark photograph. I find curved areas very difficult using a mouse and 'paint'.

I'm rambling.

Just to help you to 2000, I can't make out if it's a biplane or not.

Wrong programme mate.

Also note that the fin has effectively been chopped off...like a guillotine.

Still rambling.
Just to help you to 2000
You seriously think I need help....?

That's a clue...

...and that's 2000!

Odd...I don't feel any different?!

David, if I keep doing this 4000 will be a breeze...

Your reference to Junkers 34: has this one engine, too?
Your reference to mouse: Is there a place for a gunner between the wing and the tail?

Congrats! Now next 2,000

Mate I couldn't find a photo of this version of the machine on the net. Usually seen with floats...
Reg, I think there is a "position" mid-fuselage but I'm not certain. Having a look now...

Didn't know what the hell that is either, but it should look like a biplane Guillemin 40 which looks a bit like the challenge. Thought Guilliotine was a clue .

Should be a Dewoitine, then. Should I go through them all, or would you say don't?
