Al, There was a small part of a Decal on the main body,
but was that an add on by some one else?
The Wico on the left hand side is the give away, but I can't prove it.
I saw one in Darwin at the old Qantas hanger, and the owner assured me that 
it was a Buzacott.
The flywheel I've got for it came of the same type of engine but in a worse 
condition.
If I can't find out for sure, I'll badge it as a Buzacott, and let some one 
prove it as some thing else.
I don't know if Glen has seen it or not, he was supposed to come down on 
Sunday, but with the new house
he may have thought that was more important, ether way I'll have a go at him 
about it.
I phoned Don Reid in Brisbane, he wasn't sure, he thought it may be a F&J, 
but would try and find out the date
from the serial No.
