Tut - thought of various Westlands, but ignorance of the Welkin's purpose made me discard it. Reckon it'll be a long time before I'm fit for Silhouette Challenge, LM

If I may avail myself of the Open House

A bit like the Nieuport Gnu, alliteratively speaking

Au contraire, LM, wind & OAPs are never a pretty combination.

Did you really need me to to tell you that was right?

Incidentally seen it spelt with a V and a W - wonder what the official spelling was (of the aircraft that is)

Your turn A2

(off to try LM's challenge!)

This is a bit clumsy, but may fill in a little time until someone chips in with a better one:


Aircraft



CAMRA pilots ignore hectopascals and use an older unit when confused in real ale?
