It looked so red to my eyes! I swear it better not end up being the most obvious aircraft in the world. Is it from the 1930s?

No CB and GG, it's not a Stearman.
That's what I thought it was when I first saw it to. Very similar though. It was first produced in 1925.

I swore up and down when I first saw this picture that it was a Gulfhawk, but then you said no to Stearman. So Travel Air 4000?.

It is indeed a Curtiss Wright Travel Air 4000, otherwise known as a CW-14. Way to go!

All this time I was searching for an All-Orange biplane and then BOOM! It's Orange and White. Good job Token!

OK, lets try this one. An aircraft I have been captivated by since I was a yonker and I got to talk to one of the test pilots involved in the project.

From Grumman? The XF5-1 Skyrocket?
That's what I would have said also Graeme. Great minds think alike...and then there's us!

Good call, Graeme, that has to be the cowling on the XF5

Yep, XF5F it is. I always wondered how they would have to adapt it to make a combat aircraft out of it, location of guns, etc. I think the XP-50 is a lot closer to how it would have ended up.
Yours again Graeme.
