I only visit this site -to learn the TRUTH!

You can’t HANDLE the TRUTH ! 😉

I would agree – look at this better angle shot showing what does appear to be a scoop fitted: LINK

Just out of interest?

Just out of interest, what is that sticking out of the rear cockpit side wall?

Well I was very pleased to see the photo-i had my first ever flight- in WG428.

Plain speaking, aye. I calls a spade a spade, not a ‘Manually Facilitated Earth Extraction System’ 😉

My socks have got bigger holes than these so-called buriel sites!
