Clearly....

You've uploaded a picture of a bolt!

Don't think its a bolt. There aren't any markings on the head. I think its a plug - sump plug or something similar.

Yes, it very well could be.

Though bolts don't always have markings

 

[Geedee]

Ooooops...posted the wrong picture of said bolt !!!!

I expect someone to rattle this one off quick quickly Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

 

[Airframes]

Thinking Bf109 engine bearer bolt - but that doesn't fit with what I think was a clue. But I can't see anything to suggest maybe a mg locking bolt either .......

 

[Geedee]

Its at the front of something you don't want to be on the receiving end of !

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

 

[Airframes]

Ah ! Center bolt on the revolving barrel unit of an A-10s rotary gun.

 

[Geedee]

You got it

 

[Airframes]

OK, try this one.

 

[Graeme]

Dear oh dear. and here I was thinking "Brrrrrrrrrt" meant something cold.

Hi Terry.

WW2?
High looking tail? Float-plane? Maybe a Jap?

 

[Capt. Vick]

Great guess Terry!

P-61?

 

[Graeme]

P-61?

Ahhh....dumbass me - two tails visible.

 

[wuzak]

Ahhh....dumbass me - two tails visible.

Yes....

You should have cropped around some rivets. Or, better yet, a single rivet.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Yeah, not like you to miss something like that Graeme.

 

[Airframes]

Not a P-61, not WW2, not a float plane, and not Japanese !
Oh, an it's only got one engine.
Oh, and as it's possible to find two distinct types of this particular aircraft, I need the exact type to be identified.
Yes, I know, I'm a bar steward !

 

[Geedee]

T-28A ?

 

[Airframes]

Close Gary, but as i mentioned, to make it fair, I need the exact designation !

 

[Graeme]

Hi Terry.

Hmmm....Looking at wiki we have A,B,C,D, Fennec and Normair versions to name a few - but "two distinct types"....?

Are there turbobprop YAT 28E's being restored somewhere in the world?
Should the Taiwanese AIDC T-CH-1 be considered?
