For those who are suffering in three-figure heat, a wee suggestion. Take a vacation in Scotland.
They are forecasting frost for tonight with a distinct possibility of snow in the Highlands.
This is still July. Mid-summer.
Rob is correct on the Ryan.
Open board it would seem.
Where Angels fear to tread then......

I'm pretty confident with the Kawanishi K-2 Dev One, so I'll continue on...
Green, there is certainly no argument about your recognition of the K2.....well done
Your poser looks as if its the only Bristol Bulldog TM fitted with a Napier Rapier, presumably suspended in the Farnborough wind tunnel?

Hello boys and girls!
Just back from my holidays on the Adriacoast (Rimini) I'm sure you all want to know what's the last trend on female bathing suits...well the nacked breast fashion is past and gone and they all were robust bras...however the lower part is getting smaller and smaller offering very interesting round views...
Going back to the serious matters I'll be looking with great interest all offers of the past fortnight and for sure I'll find nourishment for my library!
Cheers

Temperatures over there averaging 35 Centigrades during the day in the shade with a bold 28 during the night (have no idea what this is in Fahrenheit)
Something funny, get message saying message should be more than 10 characters!
Will try again later!
Keith
2nd attempt -- Thank you Green, & BG 28° at night is way too hot!
Anyway it accepted this by doing a double edit, so this is the next offering.
Keith
Avro Commodore? If so, presumably one of the two sold in Egypt and then impressed there during WW2 (although wikipedia says that these were transferred to the Egyptian Army Air Force).
PH, Yes thats the one (or two), pretty looking kite.
Over to your next one.
Keith
Thank you, Keith. Regrettably I'm going to be busy all weekend. So rather than keep people waiting, I think that it's only fair that I should call open house.
I'm having a busy weekend too - tonight watching my favourite band playing in Perth - got a wee shot of them Any guesses ?
In the meantime, y'all can have a go at this nice easy floater.....
A shot in the dark?

You got it - the wondrous Punch Brothers -finest bluegrass band in the world. Mandolin and banjo virtuosity sans pareil.....(the others can play a bit too)
It's a good job this isn't the Ongoing Mystery Band thread. I was going to guess at Jimmy Shand & his Band, rather than Punch Brothers. So it's a good job that I was beaten with the right answer because on googling him, I see that Jimmy Shand died fourteen years ago - which might have presented problems in Perth tonight!
PH, I am touched by the notion that you regard me as a potential Jimmy Shand fan - his statue is a mere two miles from here in his home village of Auchtermuchty. Sadly, I could never abide Scottish country dance music, which I regard as turgid ,Presbyterian and lacking that spark which is so evident in Irish and bluegrass, and indeed Cape Breton music. Even Breton pipers and the amazing Galician Carlos Nunez have more flair than the desperate Scottish droners.....
Enough diversion - now WHAT about the floater ????
Phew, then it's a good job I didn't go with my second guess. Andy Stewart & the White Heather Band! And yes, I know I'm diverting. But only because I can't identify your 'nice easy floater'!
Pretty sure on the builder of your floater, just not easily tracking down the exact designation...
Yes, the fin/rudder shape is a feature of this family - but this was a one-off prototype. Gnome-Rhone engine.
Beats me! Closest I can get is the Levasseur PL 11.
