G'day Trevor.

Do you mind if I make it bigger?

In Harley's language it's an 'outy'?

Fascinating....

I thought it was the horizontal tail, I was also thinking of the APU in a 747... But since you had been looking at Airbuses...

It doesn't fly alone! Here's a different view, but it still doesn't show its mates coz they're further forward!

Fishy looking challenge, I thought the fairings around the exhaust were t an it off, but I think now they must be thrust reversers. Is this really a single engine aircraft?

Thanks Trevor. An excellent example of the original "AviaQuiz" principle - something well known becomes almost unrecognisable from a different angle.

Should be much easier...

Sorry for the delay (repairing a cement mixer outside) Trevor. Yes mate.

Your control again...

Well, I thought we should lighten things up a bit

But I expect you'll shoot it down with your little bow and arrow

Not likely mate. Hindenburg is about the only one I know.

Will pop in from time to time to look, but don't wait up for me. Green light doesn't mean I'm glued to the monitor. Goodnight in advance.
