No.

Hopefully Sinco is having a bad day at the Factory!

This is a Noyade 500...as Ken said, "no clues!"
Thanks for almost nothing! (At least POP: >500, some clue )- Adds insult to the injury .

Thanks for reminding me about that Reg, I'd forgotten that this challenge had to be a >500 jobber!!

Enough there now to refine my fruitless coffee time search.

Ditto: lunch break,

I think it's a Yokosuka K5Y

This one beats the >500 by a factor of ten!!

Open House please if correct as I'm struggling to get some images ready to send to LM and still hellish busy.

Not brilliant mate thanks, but at least it's a nice day and the builders are back in action and there's a challenge up to play with!

That's a good idea mate. Send to both e-mail addresses please.

I suppose we'll all have to wait now for Graeme to stop zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

About 2100 GMT I suppose.

Hope he's truthful in that one. I don' t buy his "no clue" in his cosmetics-laden litany on "black silhouettes appear invisible pink background black image sea of pink absorption (Max?) Factor". Catwalk stuff, if you ask me. Only Elizabeth Arden is missing there.

Curtis Travel Air 16E, Women in the Wind (Warner Bros 1939) starring Eve Arden (Visible Difference Cosmetics)

EDIT: I had Yokosuka but I abandonded it, no idea why. Looked too short, maybe, but lots made

Thanks skytrain and LM,

I suppose now I'll get all the flack about being able to see the sodding image in the first place!!

I though Graeme was often about at around this time, just before hitting the hay?

Dunno if it's right yet, but if you goggle it, I think the SC is in the top row of images! Break over now so back to work and it's just started raining again, so no front steps finished today

Wanna bet he's lurking until 1625 hrs?

His light went off just after I posted my Hawker Hind suggestion.

...and it appears in the Wikipedia's most manufacture aircraft list. And I didn't look.

Maybe I'll dig a hole in the ground and start hibernating

OK guys - I've had enough of this Noyade 500 stuff.

We now have a challenge without confirmation from the poster!!

Count me out of this thread.

Bugger...missed it by "that" much...



Nicely done mate! Your control. I hope the factory is OK.

Yeah, ya gay mate!

Thanks Graeme,

Just enough clues

I hope the factory is OK
It is mate, thank you, busy day and rain stopped play a couple of times, but good progress on the new works.

Just off home now and managed to get some images off to LM.

I declared an Open House in my post, dunno WTF RR's post is all about though!! My guess is that he came in and saw Reg's time for the end of the 500 minutes and thought that was the expiry of the guideline rule and therefore it was OH after that time and so rushed to put a challenge up before anyone else did, hence his comments about the timing

Now that Graeme has correctly confirmed my answer (sorry about the 500 mate ), I will again say that it's an Open House as of now!

I guess that Martin's challenge is invalid at the moment 'coz Graeme hadn't confirmed as LM pointed out above, so maybe he could delete it and repost it (if nobody else beats him to it). Is that how you all see it?

Seeya tomrrow guys, sort it out and keep it rolling
