It was a small image. The top of the tail is horizontal and is straight. I'll see if I can improve the silhouette!

Edit to say have updated the silhouette but the resolution of the original is poor, so best I can do.

Despite some green lights no guesses or questions, so to help you along this is a one-off US design, which as far as I can see is NOT in Aerofiles.

I'll put up one more clue for the morning. The name of this aircraft appears to be the complete reverse of how difficult this challenge is proving to be

Nope, "easy" is literally the last part of the name. The first part of the name is still related to my post 8791.
