Eff me...and I thought I was being too hard this time around...

Yep Gary, you guessed it...lmao

Eff me...and I thought I was being too hard this time around...

I'll see you yours and raise you one of mine

We like hard ones !!

That was a good one. Only reason I got it as soon as I looked at the pic was because I have a similar shot (well....loads really !) of the A10 !.

Heres a quick and easy one for you guys as I really shouldn't be on the PC at the moment as I'm doing the house work while the missus is out....that way I make sure it gets done to my satisfaction

Sea Fury?

 

[Geedee]

Sea Fury?

Knew I shouldn't have left the housework !!

Yup, its the good ol' Sea Fury, taken at Midland TX at the 2007 CAF Airsho (Was expecting at least few P-51 , Mustang, 'that thing you're building' type guesses first)


Take it away dude

 

[GrauGeist]

Ah well, I have an idea for the next one already...lol

Great shot on that Sea Fury, actually, it's a badass shot...nice play with light shadows!

 

[Airframes]

B*gg*r! Gary beat me to the A10, and too late on the forum for the Sea Fury ! Must admit, I thought Gary was 'playing tricks' with the Sea Fury, with such a 'large' area being shown, and had a think before going for it - just to find it was already answered!!

 

[Geedee]

Cheers guys

Gotta keep you guys on your toes !!!

 

[vikingBerserker]

Well done gents!

 

[norab]

ok here we go

 

[Airframes]

DH Caribou?

 

[norab]

afraid not

 

[Crimea_River]

Well, my first thought was an E2-C Hawkeye but I know it's wrong. However, the shape is quite similar.

 

[pbfoot]

CV240 0r 440

 

[Geedee]

I like sneaky ones.

Likewise, my first thought was a Hawkeye....but I now believe we are looking at it from a threequarter rear aspect...in other words, the back of the cabin as the target is facing left to right.

I also think its a twin so am racking my feeble brain to remember a twin with a 'high cabin and not one faired into the fuselage. I feel some pondering coming on later tonight !!

....but I now believe we are looking at it from a threequarter rear aspect...in other words, the back of the cabin as the target is facing left to right.

I do believe you're right Gary, but I still don't have a clue.

 

[norab]

no it is a front view and it is a twin

 

[Geedee]

Beechcraft 18 Super...and a tatty one at that !!!. Its a nosewheel version of the venerable 18.

 

[norab]

not a Beech

 

[GrauGeist]

Perhaps a son of a Beech?

Looks kind of like a Fairchild C-82...

 

[Airframes]

I was thinking 'Provider', but not totally convinced. Is that the same as the C-82?
