Yep, involved with some design of some parts of a bird like this... Lots of future in this type of craft, Clive

This is the Navy version of the Global Hawk. It is called BAMS for Broad Area Maritime Surveliance. Nice Pic.

Beautiful photo of an unusual aircraft. Something for Neiwil to model? I wouldn't be surprised if he comes with a perfect miniature! I understand they will be using one over Japan for damage assesment. What a grim job! Thanks for posting!
