Whats the propeller made of?

My next guess is a gladiator or Bristol Bulldog? Jeezz...I'm bad.

Its not a Bristol or Gloster product (Bulldog and Gladiator are bi-planes, remember, this one is a mono)

If I remember correctly, the prop is metal (I'm at work and the main pic is on my home computer., so I cant confirm until around 16:30 local time. Incidentaly, I took the piccie in the States )
 
A few more clues

Its an open cockpit fighter

If the Spitfire was shark like in appearance...this is the exact opposite
 
Yup...spot on.

It is indeed the little Polikarpov I-16. Taken at the CAF Airsho in 2008.

Your turn

The winner posts the next piccie for us to puzzle over.

Pick a small area .... like I did...of a shot you've taken but not big enough that we see the whole plane, then sit back and watch us squirm trying to figure out what it is.

Remember, must be a picture you have taken !
 
Prop boss on a Grumman .....one of those things! Not allowed to utter the word or type it, but it's got a feline title, was a naval fighter, used by the US and Britain.
 
Terry has an afliction....he cant spell Whiskey, India, Lima, Delta, Charlie, Alpha, Tango. He's undergoing treatment so one-day !.
 
Okay, okay, you guys got it right, it's a photo of a Wildcat taken at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C.
