Yes. I wish we had more active players, though.

Viewers we have, and currently we head to the 1M around 28 - 29.6.

I have a nagging feeling that I have seen (even in this thread?) a down-pointing tail fin. Other than that, quite a lot of stuff to leaf through…. .

I wasn't expecting to take an early bath, but it looks like it's the Jacuzzi Monoplane of 1920, after a change of engine and mods to the tail in 1922, which it seems, caused it to dig the prop in on T/O !!
