1 and 5 are great, but 5 is my fave; what a great contraption. I also failed electronics/circuts badly when studying to be a mechanic :)

well being an engineer I can relate to 2 & 4 :) I like the '5' and it definitely brings out the conehead in you :lol:

but the question is...what type of plane is it? obviously a twin of sorts, hard to pick the size of it tho, could even be an old DC-8 or convair 540 by the looks of that wing-to-fuse fairing....let me know! you have got me intrigued.

I could post a direct link to the plane, but that would be too easy for a plane spotter like you! :D

You're close. Have a look around here: http://www.aarg.com.au
