Graeme and Reg; neck and neck
Not at all mate. I can't figure out why Messerschmitt would have dispensed with the nice looking silhouette design for an ugly twin pulse-jet? Germans, eh Reg? Can't figure 'em.

It may well be in a book; but have you got it?? I don't know if it is or if you have it, but I do know that it can be found on Goggle

At some point I was on something and missed that you had NOT rebutted Messerschmitt.

Edit to say that I let the haddock simmer in butter, with some scallops, made salad with herbs and had Pfalz Gewürztraminer. As a topping (afterwards) a spoonful of Stilton and Port.

No mate; I'm fine, that was just another subtle clue that the engine was a PULSEjet

Poor old Ricky P, better do a rain dance mate!!

Graeme,

When I posted at 23:38 pushing Reg to elaborate on exactly what mark it was, I immediately saw that he had already done that and added the correct /51 to his answer.

Your picture of the pair was posted two minutes later at 23:40 so he just beat you to it (picture but without the /51), but he is now off to bed and has declared Open House.

Do you wanna take it or are you off to work now?

Mate I was beaten years ago!

No, he's misinterpreted my post. I confirmed his kill by posting the illustration with a "Thumbs Up"......see?
Do you wanna take it or are you off to bed too?
I'm out the back presently, cooking up my version of the McDonald's Sausage and Egg McMuffin with bacon....

You got an image to post?

Have you got time to put one up as I've just had my turn?
