Your logic is impeccable, but you are still wrong!

Heresy!

I assumed that we just used our memory! (The only benefit of decades spent looking at aviation books) Google only to check spelling or correct designation.

Was it my laughing smiley face that offended you? I knew I shouldn't have posted that!

Here's one to get things started again. Shouldn't be too hard. You guys have until Friday afternoon to guess it because I'll be away for 5 days after that.

Might be an idea to quote from the first post again, the rules for the game, then with luck we wont get peeps join in and then leave in a huff.

The idea is simple...show a small part of a plane and everyone tries to guess what its from. Once the 'plane is correclty identified, the full picture is posted and then the winner posts a cropped image from their pictures...and so on and so on. This is not the same as the Aircraft Identification thread where the complete 'plane is shown for ID'ing

Only stipulation is that you must use your own pictures....not ones from the Internet or copied / scanned in from books etc.

You can ask for clues but dont expect easy ones to be given.

Click to expand...

So....any-one else wants to join in, please do but remember to use your own pic's please when you correctly guess the puzzle shot.

And I personally couldn't give a rats 'R'se how or what you use to try and identify the target piccie, its all part of the fun !!

Glenn, I'll have a shot at the tail gun position on a '17 with gun and covers missing (probably in your garage ? )

Hm. Second guess would have been a stripped-out B-25 tail gun position, but I'm now thinking it's on the side of an aircraft maybe. Possibly a P-47 exhaust/ waste gate housing?

I would guess, but I don't have a picture to start a new one, if someone else would volunteer to keep the game going I have an idea...
It's German...

Not from a P-47, and not any part of an exhaust system. And also not German, but from WWII
