The What is it? Game

[Geedee]

It is the Coditz 'C*ck'. I took this during our recent trip around the airfields and is in the East Anglia Aviation Heritage Centre at Flixton

Good one Gary, and another museum which has been on my 'Must Visit' list for some time. I'll post something later this evening.

OK, try this - probably won't take long.

I have a near identical pic . She's at the Wright Patterson experimental museum ?

Yes, that is where I took the pic.

 

[Geedee]

Looks like a French turboprop engine....jetstream ?

 

[Airframes]

Yep.

another museum which has been on my 'Must Visit' list for some time

More pics to follow on the Tailwheel Tour thread . Well worth a visit but plan for a whole day to take it all in !!!

Try this one chaps...

Just a guess, Mosquito?

 

[Geedee]

Sorry mate, not a Mossie !

 

[rochie]

Hurricane ????

 

[Geedee]

Its not a Hurricane.

Hmmm.... lets see.... monoplane, taildragger, normal crew of two and a radial up front

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I have no clue.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Lysander?

 

[Airframes]

Aaron beat me to it - fairly sure it's a Westland Lysander.

 

[GrauGeist]

de Havilland Tiger Moth?

 

[Capt. Vick]

I think ABW has it!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

If I do it'll be a LUCKY guess. Don't quit working on cause I'll be floored if I'm correct.

Almost certainly a 'Lizzie' - that curving frame is the end support for the sliding rear canopy, and the attachments fro the interior frames can be seen. If it's not a Lysander, then I'll go crazy trying to remember where else I've seen that curved frame !

 

[Geedee]

Right you lot....need to join me at Aaron's....he's on the floor !.

Well done matey !!

All right then Gary, where is the 'Lizzie' based then?
