I'll try to start this again, of course this could be child's play for the experts here!

A Vought V-156F with the French Navy?

 

[Njaco]

You guys are the best! Thought I'd throw you off with a variation of the Vindicator. Good show!

I posted this earlier, want 'clues' or just the answer? It's been there a while now.

I have seen that picture somewhere. A total guess is a Farnborough 1956 show and its a Miles aircraft. What type I have no idea (right now)

Getting close Glider. SBAC show 1948. G-ALOI gathered dust in the F.G Miles hanger at Redhill for ten years until it was broken up for scrap in 1958.

Big clue-They tried to make a helicopter out of one of the airframes..


The Firth Helicopter.

My first post on this site... but the original looks like the Planet Satelite. Designed by a Major Heenan in the late 40s in the UK. It had structural problems.

First post..and yes it is/was the Planet Satellite! Welcome!

 

[Graeme]

Another one to try.

Another I-16, this time not from the "King of Fighters", but from the Latvian State Factory (VEF). I'm doing Aviaquiz too

VEF I-16 - fighter

Maybe we can combine our resources!? PM each other on the DIFFICULT ones?

 

[Glider]

Can I suggest the following. It should be pretty easy

 

[ccheese]

The angle, plus the fact it appears to be a drawing, makes it difficult.
High wing, four jet engines, T-tail........ ??

McDonnell Douglas YC-15

 

[Glider]

Yep well done
Interesting to note that after 15 years in storage, it is now in use as a technology demonstrator, which shows how advanced the design was.

PS it was a photo I took at Farnborough, some years ago
