Stand by for a tricky one, as Gary has it !
It's a 'Chippie' at Duxford.

 

[GrauGeist]

You showed too many rivets, Terry!

 

[Airframes]

Yep ! I should have just shown this :-

 

[GrauGeist]

lol Terry!

That would have slowed him down a bit!

[Geedee]

Slowed me down ?...No I can quit clearly tell you that there is a Beaver in the background and Spittie parked next to it (and don't forget the Firefly !)

I honestly thought it was something like a Miles Messenger to start off with !

Have a go at this one..

 

[GrauGeist]

MiG-29

 

[Capt. Vick]

Harrier?

 

[norab]

U-2 ?

 

[Geedee]

Sorry chaps...none of the above

 

[Capt. Vick]

British?

 

[GrauGeist]

twin engines?

 

[Airframes]

I'm sure I'm wrong, but I'll have a stab at A-4 Skyhawk.

 

[Geedee]

Actually, its awkward to give any clues without giving it away

Its not a British design.

There is a P-51 Mustang with nose-art describing one of its roles.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Way out on a limb, U-2 or TR variant?

 

[Geedee]

Sorry, not a U2.

More than one on board... unless its in 'Cabrio' mode
More than one engine.
More than one in Museums.

 

[Airframes]

I have the feeling that we'll all kick ourselves when we find out what it is - b*gg*red if I can work it out !

 

[GrauGeist]

Cabrio mode...hmmm

The only "convertible" aircraft I can think of, is the Me262A/B-1c (modern reproduction that converts from a single to two-seat)

 

[Geedee]

Not a 262.

Cabrio...no canopy because some-one ??????? while inverted

 

[Capt. Vick]

F-104?
