Morning mate.

The missile? No.

Maybe the image is too small and grainy? Try this then....

If the engine is very small, it could even be "Chichester-Miles Consultants" Leopard….

Afternoon, Graeme.

Sorry Reg, did I confuse you? I meant "similar" only in that my image does look like the Maverick's tailpipe...

No, you did not confuse me. I was looking at Mini-jets, anyways, because I thought we were around or below 500 kp……

Looking at Bombardiers now. Should I?

Cheers Graeme...not too many aircraft with that type of engine mounted in close proximity to the wing like that.

Have to be Open House as will be hitting the road soon.

Interesting: Giggle says "Best guess for this picture is DFS 346" (Samolyot 346), although it does not find any pictures of the pipes……

Ach, now I found it: "A rare backview of the DFS 346".

You're getting too fast in your old age mate!

However, I knew it would be easy to Giggle with the right words.

Over to you.
