G'day Trevor.

Do you mind if I make it bigger?

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

No prob's mate and yes, it's an "outy"!

BTW, take a look just above the bottom left corner ;)

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 20:37

Big airliner?

SincoTC 3rd Feb 2012 20:40

Airliner yes, big no!

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 20:42

Fascinating....:)

A small airliner, with a tail jet. Just the one?

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 20:45

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...

SincoTC 3rd Feb 2012 20:46

maybe you missed my edit!

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

Thanks Trevor.

Gonna make a coffee and consult the Big Book of Airliners....:)
(The "Small" section.)

We're all doomed, doomed I tell you!! :ooh::ooh:

Harley Quinn 3rd Feb 2012 21:06

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?

SincoTC 3rd Feb 2012 21:09

Hi HQ,

It is a thrust reverser, but not single engined, see my posts above!

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 21:09

Maybe...?

Stop rolling your eyes Frazer, I've warned you about that before!

SincoTC 3rd Feb 2012 21:14

Small section eh :rolleyes:!!

Not maybe mate, is the Yakovlev Yak-40 :D

Noyade has control :ok:

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 21:22

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

Should be much easier...

Mcdonnell Douglas YC-15 ??

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 22:31

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

Your control again...

Could be a bit messy to repair it inside mate!!

try this!

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 22:38

Airship mate?

SincoTC 3rd Feb 2012 22:42

Well, I thought we should lighten things up a bit :ok:

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

Noyade 3rd Feb 2012 22:58

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. :ok:
