I vaguely remember there being a reason for this, something to do with improving the handling or providing better recovery from a stall? I think I may even have read it on this very forum with regard to DelPs(?) Dove.But look at the head on shot.............they're missing a bit off the port tailplane

Chris that's a standard type Dove 8 nacelle
I think it is larger oil coolers or something........someone will know what.
But it's not turbine.
As to the missing bit Dave...that could be because it's visiting Liverpool :think:

I really should have released a Dove recognition chart
What you're looking at is a Dove series 8...the model I made is series 5/6..
The Dove 8 has different engines..bigger oil cooler intakes on top and thrust augmentors on the exhausts, as well as the higher canopy roof. Apart from that, it's the same.... as DaveB once so nicely put it: 'A Gentleman's transport of the highest standard'...
The Dove 8 and Heron series 1 and 2 are WIP...
ATB,
Derek
edit: the Dove has a bit clipped off the port elevator to prevent buffeting.
more edit: the Dove 8 model will have a bit missing as well... :think:
