Evening Gentlemen,

First time on for a couple of days, too many meetings !!

The cowling had a "Rotary" look about it, so combined with engine/airframe from the same Northern European stable narrowed it down quite a bit

I found the Thulin E

Thanks,

I'm off home in a few minutes; my home Internet is supposed to be back on again now but I won't know until I get back and try it!

I'm just preparing one to post before I go, it's an easy one, so if it's still down and my light doesn't come back on in an hour, assume the worst and apply the usual rules

Sorry mate, but if it isn't working I can't email you

I'm OK here though, so here it is!



Off now, so if my light's not back on in a hour or so, apply usual rules

Please leave your light on if you are monitoring the thread.

It confuses people. I am on thread and my green light is on.

I'm back and my connection seems OK (not very fast, but at least it's working)!!

Evening SD, not a Lockheed or NA.

WTFO the jobber between the cockpits...............
I believe it's periscope for the ultimate back-seat driving experience!!

Quite!! done in a hurry with Paint; 45 grands worth of 3D design software installed (plus 10% yearly maintenance ), but bitmaps are beneath its dignity!! BTW, my image has always claimed to be a JPEG.

Edit:

nuther early start - 0600
Call that early, more like time for a first coffee break!!!!!!

Sleep well

Absolutely no idea Trevor. Just thought I'd share that fact with you.

G'day Graeme and thank you for that nugget of information

There was only one built, but it's well represented on the Web.

Well mate, I think I've solved the Intruder Vs Prowler dilemma and everyone keeps saying here "don't work too hard" so I'll leave yours for someone else...for the moment.

Work beckons (but not hard work). Sleep well and cheers.

Good evening Karl ,

Sorry, not a Bellanca!

Edit;

Hmm, I can see why you said that, apart from the fairing behind the rear cockpit (just visible in mine) it's pretty much identical, apart from the material!!

I'm going to be away from my computer quite a bit today, but I will leave my light on and monitor periodically.
