Thanks mate, the front two looked a lot wider than the rear!
I have to ask, is it from the USA?
Civilian role?

Never seen it, isn't it an Oz brew? I expect you can get it if you look around!
Is that a clue of some kind, 'coz I don't thing Gage made anything like this!

Sorry mate, I had a visitor to see to!
I guess it must be the Sikorsky S-32 ??
Edit: I think Gage brewery probably import hops from Kent, the so-called "Garden of England" to the the SE of London to mix in with their "London's Best"

Thanks Graeme,
BTW, your Sikorsky it is coded as a five-seater in Aerofiles, but I won't hold it against you (not for long anyway
)
This is almost a silhouette!

Okay, I'll guess it is a proposed ASW/MPA. The wing is similar to the EADS C295, however the horizontal stabilizer appears almost too small. I can't find anything resembling it on the net. Did it appear in a recent issue of AVW&ST?
On second thought, is it the proposed XIAN MA60-MPA Fearless Albatross?

It is the F-27 Fokker Maritime Enforcer,Aviate1138. Although I am reliably informed that it's provenance is in doubt. Some aspects of the silhouette resemble closely the EADS C295,as mentioned by evansb.
Apologies for any confusion.
