G'day Graeme,

It's been a quiet day on SC, been pretty hectic myself and just having another look whist getting something to eat.

biplane tail is a good start!

Looks like it's the Thomas-Morse TM-24 ??

Noyade 13th Nov 2011 19:22

Yes mate, spot on. :ok:

Yeah, looks like it was quite day on SC. Probably a good thing - a sign that people are out and about or working hard like yourself. :)

SincoTC 13th Nov 2011 19:43

Thanks Graeme,

Have a good day :ok:

Here's the next one!

From your latest acquistion at the market Graeme?

Noyade 13th Nov 2011 21:34

Evening Ken.

Same book. But I was just bull****ting ya mate, had that book since 1987. :)
I did buy a second-hand Brace, two Acrow scaffolding supports and a book that looks at how Hollywood stars died. Saddened to read how William Holden died. :(

skytrain10 13th Nov 2011 21:50


had that book since 1987
I had wondered:) Looked it up on Amazon, and found one for a couple of quid, so I bought it! Figured I can't go wrong at that price.
Time to do a little investigation

No, although there is a connection with a European homebuild design from the late 60's.
