ID the aircraft (little quiz)

[VBF-13]

Just for fun.

 

[Procrastintor]

F4F Wildcat, am I right?

 

[VBF-13]

Well that didn't take long. Good going!

 

[Procrastintor]

I just noticed that the name of the plane is on the picture lol

 

[GregP]

Maybe F4F Mildcat?

Yeah I don't know how you could have missed it.

Maybe F4F Mildcat?

Aw they weren't that bad. Remember these planes didn't fly themselves.

 

[Procrastintor]

Maybe F4F Mildcat?

The F4F is NOT mild, it was flown very well and effectively against the Zero, the Thach weave was invented with this plane and the Wildcat did very well while it was in service.

 

[Procrastintor]

Now I've got one for you guys,

 

[VBF-13]

Is it a P-40?

 

[oldcrowcv63]

Definitely P-40E, K or N?

 

[nuuumannn]

F4F Wildcat, am I right?

A Brewster Buffalo?

 

[oldcrowcv63]

A Brewster Buffalo?

Are you still trying to guess the one with the name on it? If I were from Oz, I'd probably say, "Figures." (I"ve been watching too many episodes of "Conchords.")

Sarcasm doesn't translate well to forum conversations, does it.

Flight of the Conchords are doing a sell out tour here at the moment; a mate of mine went, but I missed out, working at night. Very funny!

 

[oldcrowcv63]

Love 'em. Sorry you missed 'em.

[Procrastintor]

Yes it's a P-40. Someone else's turn I guess.

You can't have, there's no such thing.

.....and btw, after marking everyone as present I'd just like it noted in the minutes that Murray rules, ok?

 

[nuuumannn]

Awesome, Oldcrow and Gixxerman! Who woulda' thunk FotC fans here!

.....and btw, after marking everyone as present I'd just like it noted in the minutes that Murray rules, ok?
