Hi spook

Seeing as you said it was hung underneath a bizjet, could it be a Pratt and Whitney Canada PW306B on a Fairchild Dornier 328JET ??

Hi Noyade - Actually I couldn't see what I was taking as I had to reach up - but not much! They're not very big these Lear's

I just re-read the clues spook gave and I realise that he didn't say it hung under (that was LM's question) but on a bizjet, my confusion DOH!!

SincoTC - Even I was confused and had to double check! Skytrain - Yes Farnboro'! Anyway I guess we're awaiting Kitbag's next challenge.

I have just booked another long weekend in the Lake District, so will not be around next weekend for four days.

Have booked a very expensive country house hotel by Coniston Water.

Going for an all day boat trip including lunch with wine.

Then perhaps your weekend thoughts of a pure turbojet would include 'blue' boats and Coniston Water?

…… and bits of a Gnat (?) stuck on the back of a pseudo high speed catamaran?
And your lunch would include a ‘Scottish’ named soup. OH!
