• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Thank you, Robert, also thanks Chris, to whom I must offer an apology - I have found the answer under my nose, in the relevant Jane's entry -
'A small aerofoil surface is mounted above the leading-edge surface of the top wing, behind the pilot's cockpit, to correct the flow of air disturbed by the cockpit opening.' (the notion of French designers of the period being concerned about airflow is somewhat hilarious....)
but thank you anyway for posting that splendid document - it never ceases to amaze me what is out there......

Back, inevitably, to the water -

Thanks Lefty well fortunately no snow at all in the major tuscan cities Florence, Siena, Arezzo etc although all surrounding Hills are blanketed with snow however it is bitterly cold....in the early morning today.... it was minus 10!
I'll submit a new mystery in the afternoon however if somebody wants to step in he is more than welcome.
By the way Lefty looking at your #16762 shouldn't she be a Berliner Joyce XOJ-1 with ZAP flaps?

Cheers
Carlo
