If you can tell me what's hiding behind these bushes, all the drinks are on me the next time that you come to Glasgow.....

Well, I thought there was a twin engined something just to the left of the P-39 as you look at it.

Oh well....

I passed right by them when I walked into the forest. There is a Howard Johnsons about 100yards into the brush on the left and the Swinney Switch nudist colony entrance is about two hundred yards down the road to the right.

No dear boy! The envy would be your worst pain. You probably wouldn't ever feel quite right ever again. Just trying to save you from the pain.

Ok so you spring the {hidden} object I'll ask this question. I would have said a P 38 untill I see the other tricycle.

It's a P 400 of a USAAC Sqn.

My question is:-
In what PTO region is the Strip this pic was taken ?

Jan,

2 places come to mind.

1./ Batchalor in the Northern Treitory south of Darwin.
2./ Millingimbi on the western rim of Cape York Peninsula, an RAAF Catalina base was close by.

That's all I can add to Western Region if it helps.
