dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I've always had a soft spot for this aircraft. It's rarely seen in the aviation press. I'd love to see one in FS. Ok, looks like I've got to find another one, hmmmmmmmm..... okay, try this.....should be easy....but it may surprise you! Link to post Share on other sites

dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Part of me says Miles messenger, but in that case it should have a tailwheel. Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 It should have a tailwheel, but only just noticed it's missing off the model. Not a Messenger - bit small Link to post Share on other sites

allardjd 1,853 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 That almost looks like a MAD boom coming out of the tail cone. Some kind of ASW or maritime patrol type maybe... John Link to post Share on other sites
