 Flightless Axy-wing 2-58 vertex (28)r3c1 pincers (25)r3c6 & (85)r9c1 with fin (9)r9c1; r6c1<>5
 If xy-wing is true plus transport: (5)r3c6-r45c6=(5)r6c45
 If fin is true: (9)r9c1-r89c2=r5c2-(9=45)ls:r45c1
 
 xy-wing 3-59 vertex (39)r2c5; r789c4<>5

				| Ted, 
 Thanks for keeping me honest. After a second try (this time online), this is where I get after basics:
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | +-----------+--------------+----------------+
 | 7   28  9 | 46   46  1   | 5   28    3    |
 | 6   4   5 | 8    39  23  | 1   279   279  |
 | 28  1   3 | 59   7   25  | 6   4     289  |
 +-----------+--------------+----------------+
 | 459 6   7 | 1    8   345 | 239 259   259  |
 | 459 359 1 | 7    2   345 | 389 5689  5689 |
 | 25  235 8 | 359  359 6   | 7   1     4    |
 +-----------+--------------+----------------+
 | 3   578 2 | 56   1   9   | 4   5678  5678 |
 | 1   579 6 | 245  45  8   | 29  3     2579 |
 | 589 589 4 | 2356 356 7   | 289 25689 1    |
 +-----------+--------------+----------------+
