Don't wish to seem picky, but Smoke has changed his post from Canadair to Voodoo. No probs, let him take it.

You are correct. I did it before I saw anyone else's posts. I believe you were actually first in correctly identifying the aircraft.

It's yours Airframes!

 

[Airframes]

No probs, you have it Smoke.

 

[bobbysocks]

voodoo is correct...you got it smoke.

 

[Smoke]

Okay. Thanks Airframes!

Since this one may be a hard one, I'll start it off with a clue.

It's a WWII era airplane.

 

[Waynos]

Ah, but which bit of it, smokes?

 

[Smoke]

It was introduced in 1941. It also served as a trainer post war.

Also, the part shown is the underside of the left wing.

 

[Airframes]

P47.

 

[Smoke]

Not a P-47.

It's not American.

[Edit] And another clue: it had/has a three-bladed propeller.

 

[Airframes]

So if used as a trainer after WW2, probably British or Russian. Only one that comes to mind which fits the bill (if multi-engined), doesn't match what appears to be part of a flap, and that's DH Mosquito.

 

[Geedee]

CAC 16 Wirraway ?

 

[Smoke]

Not a Wirraway or a Mosquito.

It's single engined, it is part of a flap and it's not British or Russian.

 

[Geedee]

Its a monoplane, its not American or English or Russian, it has a three bladed prop, and your piccie looks like it belongs to a low wing monplane of Germanic construction and colours

In for a penny...its a FW190 A8 U1...S-5 / S-8.

The 190 was introduced in Aug 1941. In late 44 / 45 the two seater trainer versions where introduced.

 

[Airframes]

I was thinking FW190, but used as trainers after the war? By whom? Certainly not Germany !

 

[Smoke]

Not a 190.

It served (among other places) in Africa.

 

[Geedee]

Not aware of a three bladed prop on a Storch, but I'll throw that in for the time being

 

[Airframes]

Messerschmitt 108 Taifun.

 

[Geedee]

Messerschmitt 108 Taifun.

I thought Taufin but havent seen one with a three bladed prop ?
