[Geedee]

She's in a building behind the hangars at Duxford...I think between the first and second ones.

 

[Airframes]

Ah - I wondered where they'd hidden her! Thanks mate.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Ok, it's the only thing that came to mind when you said it had a single radial and a crew of two. Ok let's see if I can stump you guys with this.

 

[Airframes]

I'm ultra stumped !

 

[T Bolt]

I don't know why Brooks, but something in the back of my head is saying P-38

 

[Capt. Vick]

I'm thinking some version of the C-130...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Excellent guess Capt. It is part of the missile defense system on a C-130. The ball's in your court sir!

 

[Capt. Vick]

Try this...

 

[Airframes]

Hmm. Experimental F-100 ?

 

[Geedee]

I'm thinking YB-36 / 50. ?. To me, it looks like a large plane, but having said that, I don't recall seeing any pics of the big Boeings with wing tanks

 

[Airframes]

My first thought was some type of B-52, maybe from the 'X' projects, so you could be right Gary.

 

[norab]

C-119 ?

 

[Geedee]

Do you know what....if I lift my monitor up and look underneath the piccie you've just posted....I reckon you might just have it !

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Ya think?! Good one Norab!

 

[Capt. Vick]

Close enough Norab! It is in fact the Fairchild XC-119H, competitor to the often forgotten, low production and little used Lockheed C-130 Hercules.

Fire away amigo!

 

[norab]

OK, this one might be a little bit of a challenge

 

[wuzak]

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?

 

[T Bolt]

I know I've seen that somewhere but I cant remember where.

 

[meatloaf109]

Roswell.
