Many thanks,Harley Quinn, and my apologies for the delay in responding.

Good morning Terrence.

Looks low on the ground, with military green at top right? And it looks like makeshift metal strips are holding the "petal-type" (107) airbrakes in the closed position. A battered museum piece?

The Mighty Thud?



It's a miserable overcast 11 deg.C here and raining. Shouldn't smile, but my wife is just now heading off to a graveside funeral.

Mind you, I'll soon be trudging off to work with an umbrella.

So Open House if it's the Thud. Cheers.

Yes, still in Argentina, your control Graeme.

You've probably already gathered I'm rather partial to cutaways. But if you've had enough of them, just say "enough with the cutaways!"

And I will consider it.
