Good luck with that mate - I could never figure it out.

But yes, the Bloch 160.

Open House...till Buttrick sorts out his iPad.

Protocol used to dictate one would wait for confirmation before posting a new challenge. The procedure reduced confusion as to who had control.

Unfortunately, the British machine I was thinking of was actually Italian...



Is your British machine post WW2? Homebuilt?

Designed and built in WWII


What is the Italian one you posted? Or is it a future contender?

Aircraft I have flown



I watched the one that I had recently flown get to the top of the wire only to have the rudder fall off; Landed OK though.

Looks like a Swallow to me, but then it was 1960 when I last flew one at Lasham, so it probably isn't, you lot are much too erudite for something that simple.......
