Well the green splodges on 26-02 reminded me of Jane Russell, but I thought the Curtiss-Wright AT-9 Jeep was almost an anagram of Jane Russell too and that reply never made it anywhere. I think if you take too long writing a reply the system loses your text and the pm just disappears.

Hi Allan,
You mentioned in your PM that the system seems to lose unsaved drafts.
The operative word there is "unsaved". If you want to come back and add/modify, you definitely need to save your words.

There again the system may well have a wittering nonsense filter. SWMBO seems to have one, but objects when I have my SWMBO filter on....i think.

I thought I had it; the shape of the tail fin was my clue, but it was a false lead. Can you clear the choice of next plane with me first, Mike ?

Thanks to all those who entered for this one.
The short story on this is; diamond badges to
Mick (woody901), Pete (MilesMan), PeteP.

Unusually, the 6 "others" outnumbered the correct identifications.
Well done, recipients!
