Hello Zaxis.

A little small, but possibly the McDonnell 220?

Thanks Zaxis. Gulfstream I at the top and some sort of Convair at the bottom?

In the meantime here's another...



Sunny skys here at the moment, but the forecast is for rain this afternoon so I have to get moving. If you find the above (it's from the net) don't wait for me, just continue on.

Cheers.

The McDonnell 220 is at this Google Earth location

31.794782, -106.386362

I reckon the top right is Convair 540 or 580 and the other is a 340 or 440.

Current challenge looks a bit hard... need to think a lot.
