[Geedee]

Not an Atlantic, bl**dy good try tho !

 

[Marcogrifo]

Hi again,

I'm guessing 'bout something with counter-rotating props...maybe?

Cheers

 

[Geedee]

Not contra rotating, sorry

 

[GrauGeist]

I know!
Is it the caterpillar drive on the Red October?

 

[pbfoot]

C130

I know!
Is it the caterpillar drive on the Red October?

I was thinking more along the lines of a stealth ray projector from a UFO

 

[Geedee]

Its not the caterpillar drive...might cause a few headaches trying to get it to work underwater, but it would certainly shift if it could !!! and its not from a UFO (Congress said they weren't to use their death rays on account of some-one might get hurt and sue !!!) and its not a C130.

clues....

Single engine
AiraCobra

 

[Airframes]

AH - licence-built by Bell, Reliant Robin GTi with the AMT conversion !!

Is that the four wheel drive three wheeler ?. Awesome....I had one !


Nope !!!

 

[Geedee]

Time for another clue methinks...

This one has been re-engined.

 

[Airframes]

Got me guessing now. Re-engined with a turbo-prop maybe? The 'Bell' thing is throwing me off, so I'll have a stab at the Cavalier COIN Mustang with the TP engine ?

 

[T Bolt]

XF-84H

 

[pbfoot]

Have no clue except maybe Osprey

 

[Geedee]

XF-84H

Was getting a bit concerned there...was thinking that Glenn is bound to get this one straight away !!!. It is the XF 84H.

My clues....headache = Thunderscreech
Airacobra = engine behind pilot...Thunderscreech ?...same configuration with the propshaft running under the pilot, also a nosewheel
Re-engined = originaly had a jet installed

 

[Grampa]

Thats a good on I say 8)

 

[T Bolt]

Didn't realize what part of the aircraft I was looking at for a long time!!! Once it hit me that it was the base of a prop blade it didn't take long.

Try this one on. Hope it's not too easy

 

[Airframes]

Ryan monoplane.

 

[T Bolt]

That's it Terry. The Spirit of St. Louis in particular.
