Sorry Patoruzo, you beat me to it and yes, you're right. 215. Advanced twin-engined trainer, designed by a Prf Stankov. First flew 1952. I've got some notes somewhere..........

As far as I can tell, yes! The caption calls it a product of the Air Force Technical Institute (Ikarus?) Type 215 crew trainer. Can't find much on the net about it...

Could it be a Short Stirling??
I think it´s the Stirling prototype RAF serial number L7600, written off during her maiden flight 14 May 1939.

Hmmm..ImageShack problems Patoruzu. They sometimes disappear and return. No link, sorry, scanned image, but it was the Short Stirling.

Hi Krabat! How have you been?

I'll even accept "Italian" after five days... ... Sergio Stefanutti's second canard, the two-seat S.S.2 of 1937.

New one...

Not good, not bad either. Just busy. Sorry for that but 2008 is a tough year and it wont get better the next months. I will visit the forum from time to time but probably not regularly.

But for now I got a really tough one. Ask for hints!

Yeah, its a tough audience.

This is a famous photograph of a cockpit hurtling to destruction with two occupants. Even more human destruction occurred on the ground. What was the aircraft? And what happened?...

Thanks, I appreciate it. It will and even if not, I will learn to cope.

The picture shows the crash of the DH110 with John Derry and Anthony Richards at Farnborough in 1952, killing a lot of spectators too:
