[Airframes]

Recognize it, but don't know the name.
BTW Glenn, that girl is Barabara, Max's wife!

 

[T Bolt]

O-47 it is

 

[norab]

Okay, here we go

 

[T Bolt]

L-4

 

[norab]

Fraid not

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

J-3 Cub.?

 

[norab]

nope

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

A Piper PA-18 Super Cub?

 

[GrauGeist]

Taylorcraft DCO-65 about 1942 or 43 vintage

(Military designation is L-5 "Grasshopper")

 

[norab]

Nope, not a Taylorcraft or a Piper. Incidentally the L-5 was a Stinson design which it also isn't

 

[Airframes]

Auster?

 

[norab]

not an Auster

 

[norab]

time for a clue I guess, a US designed tandem two seater with a Continental O-65 turning the prop

 

[T Bolt]

L-3 Aeronca

 

[norab]

Not an Aeronca

OK, time for a little mercy, May I present the L-6, AKA the Interstate Cadet

somebody else jump in please

 

[GrauGeist]

Well dang...that was a good one!

I was really sure I had it with the Taylorcraft guess, though...there's a striking resemblance between both those aircraft, especially the lower fuselage and landing gear.

Shoulda kept us guessing!

Ok, I'll toss one in there:

 

[Airframes]

Possibly an intake, but got me stumped so far!

 

[T Bolt]

I think we need a clue.

 

[GrauGeist]

Ok, a few clues...

It is piston-powered with a prop

It is WWII era (this means it's original design and subsequent versions did see service during and after the war)

It is a monoplane

It is a tail-dragger

*Bonus Clue*
It is American and this particular variant had a low production run

 

[Catch22]

Almost want to say an early P-40.
