I see what you mean Wayne. There is a larger pic I posted a few months ago of the same pic - look at post #16. I see the wingtip but thats awful hard to gauge.

I love a white nose on those Emils.

Yeah it is hard to gauge ..I wish there was an original image to view....i think the couple of shots that might help (already posted) are either poor photo's to begin with or copies of copies....

Interesting that 2 of the photos and one of the color profiles has a small bluebird(?) just in front of the double chevrons. I've seen pics and profiles of Wick's planes before but I had never noticed this element. Thanks for posting these njaco.

It's a Kingfisher cosidered agile,accurate and deadly (to a small fish!). It was a personal emblem.
