It is the Potez 56 T3. Noyade mentioned it first. He has control. As Noyade is heading to work, skytrain10 can have control to keep the thread moving.

G'day Oz.

Looks like it should now be yours because you're up and about and it's 1700 local time with you.

True, but it's cooking/drinking time now.

I did make this quickly though - GIMPed a line drawing. Light is on but pans are flying, so don't get upset if my response is slow.

Morning/Evening all.
First chance to look in - yes certainly has a Japanese look about it.
lights or tanks?
Or floats?
Nothing obvious springs to mind, so time to have a little look.

Not had the time to play this morning, but I reckon that's a good call Graeme.

And thanks for the fireworks David

Many apologies gentlemen, but I lost PPrune at work and it looks permanent - I'll PM you all shortly, but I will not be able to play during the day.

Graeme has ID'd the challenge and has declared Open House.

Dear oh dear. Time to join us mere mortals mate? Getting very clever these employers nowadays. Only had the internet very briefly at work once, but PPRuNe was stripped of it's images, replaced by white boxes with black borders. Kinda made the challenge identification hard. Then again, not much chance to even look. You'll have to learn to stay up later.

Nah mate - it's easier than that.

Quitting work at the end of this month.

Assuming you're back from work soon, are you taking your OH back?

All very quiet, so in the interest of keeping things moving here is a nice easy one:

A good number of aviation related companies ban PPRuNe because of it's content. I guess your company has joined the list David?

Quitting work at the end of this month.
Bit of a drastic solution...so is this retirement or have you a long sleeve shirt on today?
