Silhouette challenge
Afternoon all!
I went to LM's office, but the college security guy said he wouldn't be back until Monday ...![Bad teeth](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/badteeth.gif)
Anyway, back to the challenge, how about the Aurora Flight Sciences Orion UAV conventionally powered version (the first was to be hydrogen powered).
Good luck with the hospital visit Noyade. I hope it all goes smoothly.

LM, Rest assured I would never write 'airplane' except in the context above or, if aboslutely necessary, to communicate with a salt water tea drinker.
Am I to understand these days that flying machines are no longer to be called'aerodromes' and that term is now applied to the places where such devices alight?

Langley's Aerodrome?
Also, 'What is an 'aerodrome'?

I'm sure if you browse the early Flight archives you will find the term used on several occasions. When I was an apprentice at RAE Farnborough I used to sit in the hiastorical section of the library on a wet lunchtime reading the original 1909 copies of Flight. There was amazing collection of books; I wonder where they are now?
