Guys I'm so sorry I was away and missed continuation of the competition. My wife had an operation at the hospital and after she came back home there was some complications a couple of days later and she had to be rushed back.

I completely forgot about the competition its been chaotic. She was in a lot of pain bleeding I had to drop everything and live at the hospital practically

3 years waiting and the op was unsuccessful it had to be partly reversed and needs to be done again. its affected her mentally almost worse than physically

She is back home now and things are getting better. I'm not able to do much on Subsim just yet its too hard to focus on anything but hope to be back as soon as pos

Sorry Again

Simon

Russia's Tu-95 “Bear” Is The Only Propeller-Powered Strategic Bomber Still Flying.

Is it still in service?

Okay, to prevent a recurrence of recent times I'm putting in a new rule....if the person who guesses correctly doesn't put up another 'puzzle' before 24 hours have lapsed after having guessed correctly, the person who gave the previous 'puzzle' (in this instance it would be Aktung) must nominate someone to start a new 'puzzle'.

This has already happened a few times so I expect we can all be comfortable with the above.

Soooo till approx 8pm GMT tonight.
