Not a Waco.

Boy! this is a hard one Andy

 

[Crimea_River]

And the ones before this were......!

Well, we can say it's a bi-plane.

 

[T Bolt]

That part I knew, and by now I think I've looked at several thousand biplanes on Goggle Images with no matches.

 

[Crimea_River]

I'll let a few others give a shot before putting out a clue. But if you've looked at a few thousand pictures, you've probably overlooked this one.

A very broad guess - Bucker Jungmann?

 

[Crimea_River]

Ooooooooo....so close.

 

[GrauGeist]

lmao...pretty sure I know this one...it's a Bu133? (Bucker "Young Master" trainer)

Looks like the Exhaust brace beneath the cowling

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I do believe Dave has it.

 

[Crimea_River]

Yes, indeed it is a Bücker Bü-133 Jungmeister. Terry was very close. The Jungmann was the Bü-131 two seat trainer with an inline engine and a different exhaust setup so I could not give it to him. This picture was taken at Duxford in Sept 2010. I actually think the Jungmann is the silver plane parked right beside this one.

 

[Airframes]

B*gg*r! I always confuse the Jungmann and Jungmeister !

 

[GrauGeist]

Cool...I thought I recognized that, and Terry, for a second, I thought your guess was right, since the Young Man and the Young Master are pretty dang close!

Now, it's my turn and I'm not going to be nice this time!

Good luck, guys!!

Another pure guess - C46 Commando?
