How does one tell the difference between an FH-227 and an F-27 without looking it up the N-number? Any visual clues? More windows in the 227?

Perhaps the tail cone air brakes are deployed? What is that blue I'm seeing behind #4 engine?

Also rear view mirror and cable might suggest a glider tug. Tough bugger, this. Trailing link suspension designed for some banging around -- like they use for carrier-landing aircraft (and Ercoupes!) Slats retractable. French machinery can be pleasantly different!

Oh wow. Love this. Thank You! Also thanks to jesse kyzer for the link. (She was once named Miss Piggy!) Thanks also to the dedication of the mechanics and engineers who saved it from the scrapyard and rebuilt it after the accident.
