We have a winner. :angel:

New one.

monoplane fighter, inward retracting l/g, v-12 engine (not of the country of origin), tapererd wing, enclosed bubble like canopy, 1 20mm cannon (engine mounted) and 4 7.7mm mgs, rear mounted radiator, was to replace the Firefly, later had its engine replaced by a radial and given a new designation

hint: 3 colors in the country's flag

the colours in the flag aint much help as many countries have 3 colours

can we get a nationality for the plane??

cheddar cheese · Feb 5, 2005

Fairey Spearfish?

I know, if I gave you the country, it would be very easy to guess the a/c.

The colors ran vertical.

cheddar cheese · Feb 5, 2005

Well, if it ws intended to replace the Firefly it must be Allied, but it cant be British, Soviet or American, So that must mean it was by some random country that done bugger all Correct?

the lancaster kicks ass · Feb 5, 2005

and the engine is proberly a merlin or griffon, so that's why the engines are of a different nationality, we're getting there...........

cheddar cheese · Feb 5, 2005

You see I thought I was onto something with the Spearfish, it matched the description and made logical sense, but obviously not...

the lancaster kicks ass · Feb 5, 2005

perhaps he's confused and the stripes run horizaontal and it's the americans??

cheddar cheese · Feb 5, 2005

No because the American stripes only have 2 colours, red and white, he said there was 3. Im thinking it was French, Belgian or evan an IRISH plane

the lancaster kicks ass · Feb 5, 2005

dude the american flag has 3 colours, red and white stripes, and white stripes on a blue background in the top left, ring a bell??

KraziKanuK · Feb 5, 2005

It is the Firefly with 2 wings, not the one with 1 wing.

No confusion lanc. Think about the hint, "if I gave you the country, it would be very easy to guess the a/c". What does that suggest?

LOL lanc, do you know what direction vertical is? American flag's 2 strips run horizontal.

the lancaster kicks ass · Feb 5, 2005

well this changes things...............

cheddar cheese · Feb 5, 2005

Well at the moment Kanuk, im Stumped!

No white stripes on a blue background here lanc, theyre stars...
