    I think the structure of the cowling will be apparent and sufficient for some, so they can name it.

    Again, the engine cowling is a good hint.
    And that guy who guessed [he didn't guess, he KNEW!] my last one, is a genious. I wonder if he will make a mockery of this brilliant riddle as he did my last?

    Ah, so you found it, answered it for your own satisfaction and did not tell users here the name of the plane that you discovered.
    That is good!
    Thanks for letting others have a chance!
    Cool.
    Wow, you didn't get your education and research methods from some insane yankee jesus-bible school system. Seems to me USSR era education prepared you very well.
    Or else I am full of shit and floundering....
    But for some reason I think you did find the plane and that you did not give the answer you found away.
    Maybe some other user with a brain will use the wetware method of image search...... that is how I have to...:

    I once identified a woman I used to know when she sent me an email that had writ in it GUESS WHO! And GIF of [deleted]. She was pretty impressed, even got on a train and came to see me. I guess I impressed her with my attention to detail and a good [at that time] memory, well, I spent a lot of time up close examining her [deleted] and had grown fond of it It was indelibly stamped into my memory, hehe.
    She came to see me and let me have some more.
    And then took-off and left me short a pair of rings I inherited from my dead Babushka...
    I was gonna use those rings for some other woman, who doesn't steal.

    Oh, I think exec was telling me how the last one was solved, that he found whole lot of shots. I dunno, even when a crafty Russ isn't trying to be ambiguous it comes out anyway....
    Uh, sure, if you want to PM, that would be nice for the other users here who want to have a good think.

    — What is that object?
    — That is not an object. It flies. It is an airplane. It is my airplane.
    And I was proud to have him learn that I could fly.
    He cried out, then:
    — What! You dropped down from the sky?
    — "Yes," I answered, modestly.
    — Oh! That is funny!

    PM is sent.
    ...
    But only for God's sake, don't award me fish if only you don't want to kill me.
    If I eat it — i'll die about 20 minutes. Ambulance all the same won't arrive so quickly.
    Strong allergy. Bad ecology. Radiation. Biological danger.
    All humans must die.
    ETC.
    :)
    ...
    Better send a beer :)

    Here we have invaded tributary waterways. There are these crayfish from somewhere else, the wrong ones. Imported long ago and invasive now.
    When I was a boy I learned about those crawlers.
    A kid, or anyone, was allowed as many as they could catch. And there were lot to be had.
    Get down do your shorts or just nothin.... Make sure you have brought a bucket or two, a stick, 20 feet of line, a hook and anything you want that is organic, a crayfish will take it. I had a blast one day, I was skipping out from school and was gonna bring a bucket of those crayfish home. When I did that I never got in trouble for skipping school.
    Uh, where was I?
    Oh yeah, I started experimenting, what can I use for bait? All my lunch is gone, used to bait those little [yummie] crawlers.
    Well, I looked down, there I was.
    I never told anyone about the bait, except Kenny, my best friend, he told me he did the same thing and he never told anyone about it either.
    At his place not long ago, drunk around the table, I asked him if he still goes fishing for crayfish, he laughed and laughed, inside joke. No-one else in the kitchen, with their beer, got the inside joke, ol' Kenny got it.

    Ever do that summer camp trick?: That you didn't even know about, until another kid told you:
    NEVER POUR DETTOL* INTO THE LATRINE PIT....
    ?
    *A powerful disinfectant.
    And, if you were a kid like me, thought, Hmm, so, why not? I have a bottle of that stuff, why did I have it on my list of Things To Bring To Camp? Must be for to dump in the latrine pit.... here goes.......
