Thanks Trevor. You're up early mate. I just got home from work, so I'll have a scrounge around shortly, but until then, open house.

Don't work too hard.

SNCASO SO-30
That'll do me mate. I have it as the 30N prototype. P&W is also what I have. I just didn't know that it originally had a single tail.

Your control Martin.
