(Lord Kelvin, president Royal Society, 1895.) Looks like a real slippery bird, as far as big birds are slippery. The belly fairing looks much more streamlined than many other birds in that class, to me. -- Jim in NC |

Further searching says this one is a model 100-95 with a 2950 km range fully loaded so it also has a fair range. -- Andrew B (Cheshire, England) "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible."
