    Sorry, no. This one hails from Nebraska.

    Here`s the tail, or what I have of it - I can only find one picture of this aircraft online.

            I seem to remember an Israeli aircraft that you had to unveil yourself, Brian.

            But anyway, behold the Lincoln Playboy:



            I guess this makes for an open house?

                    Oh, I`ve got a few more doozies in my so-obscure-no-one-would-ever-imagine-an-aircraft-looking-like-this folder.... But this is not one of those...

                    Here`s the cockpit:

                      Maybe a few textual hints too:

                      The aircraft in question was only built in a grand total of 1 example. And even that example was a 7/10th R&D aircraft. But it did fly. It is from the early seventies, and it is British. Or maybe I should say was, to the best of my knowledge it was scrapped.

                      Cheers,

                                Maybe more of the front end can help jog your memory, then?
