Bummer!!

Well, apart from putting one up under "Usual Rules", with a caveat that it expires to OH if it's not gone by noon Zulu tomorrow, I guess you'll have to sit it out for a while and hope someone else turns up, or my connection is working when I get home, which won't be for about ninety mins as I've got to go somewhere on the way!

Catchya later I hope

Good afternoon CGB and a belated welcome to the thread

Naughty angle I feel. ATL-98 Carvair
Well done, it is the Aviation Traders ATL-98 Carvair

Naughty I agree, but any other view would have been far too easy



Unfortunately, it's back to an Open House

No, German....?



(I'm up a little earlier than usual - two nice policeman called at 0230 hrs to inform me my son's car, registered in my name, is now a pile of ashes. Gonna try and get a few more hours of sleep, and then make some phone calls. So, open house if it's the Dornier thingamagig. Cheers.)

Nicely done mate.

What on earth happened to your son? I do hope he's OK. Insurance could be tricky in future if he's young.

Open House has been declared.

I do hope he's OK
He's good. Just slept while his car burnt to a crisp. Thanks for asking.

Yours would have to be the Handley-Page H.P.47.



Doesn't seem to be many around these days mate. A confirmation seems unlikely before your 0600 hr rise tomorrow and not much happens on the "night-shift", so daredevil I will be - here's the next challenge....
