Thanks Graeme....yes, one of my favourites. One wonders what would have happened had the photo-shoot not gone wrong? Amazing that the aircraft it was to have replaced is still flying after more than 50 years!

Early night so Open House.

Good night.

Goodnight Ken, but just in case you're slow with the toothbrush, here's a quick one to lure you back.

No takers, so I'll reclaim the OH.

Sorry for the poor quality, but let there be no doubt that this is an air-intake!

G'day again mate. Jet intake? Looks sorta radial. Russian? Can't figure out the attachment points. Looks like it's on top of a biplane.

Good afternoon Karlark,

Good ID mate!! It is the Aerial Distributors DWI-1 Distributor Wing



G'day Graeme, that should answer your questions It was a 1965 crop-duster with a novel way of eliminating the spraybars! The inlet is for a compressor/Sprayer, powered by an auxiliary Lycoming O-235

I think you boys are developing a mean streak.

Thanks Karlark. Moving on...

Afternoon Karlark,

That'll do for me, it's the Lycoming powered Diamond DA42-L360 (rather than the usual Thielert Centurion turbocharged diesel engines)

That's a real interesting looking device, but it's my sack-time now as I've gotta be up in less than five hours !

Is it a canard, manned or not?
