Nice angle, thanks for posting that.

Interesting to see a Navajo with winglets too. Pistons twins are getting rarer these days :(

Thanks for that, very nice, especially with the winglets.

Not sure about the tail on the 125 though - looks like something I used to create on a BBC Micro in the 1980s!

I quite like the 125, I got a decent night shot of it once.

Here's another Metro. Will check on my HDD tonight for more but this is the last recent one. :)
