Norwegian 'one off' camouflage on Gloster Gladiator ?

Right first time. That didn't last long.

Here's the full image:

Only got it due to following Andy'S (Crimea River) Gladiator build in the current GB !!
It was the camouflage pattern that looked familiar, so the rest was fairly easy.
I'll be back soon with something.

 

[Airframes]

OK, try this one. It'll either be very easy, or take some time .................

Hi Terry.
Bristol 188?

 

[Airframes]

Yep, it is indeed the Bristol Type 188, the stainless steel 'flaming pencil' test aircraft, preserved at RAFM Cosford.
And I thought it might be you who got it Graeme !!
Here's a shot of the complete aircraft, taken during an earlier visit to Cosford.

Holy Crap that was impressive!

 

[wuzak]

From the front it looks a little like a baby SR-71.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Never would have gotten that one. Good one!

 

[Graeme]

Thanks Terry.
I'm happy to pass the baton onto anyone waiting to have a go.
Cheers.

That's insider trading! There are laws against that kind of thing, y'know!!!

i know, tempted sooo many times to answer them and look all knowledgeable and clever !

 

[Airframes]

You'd have to work harder to do that !!

That was fast.

 

[buffnut453]

That was fast.

Yes, the Bristol 188 was pretty fast!

Ooops...you meant Graeme's response.





I'll get my coat!

 

[Airframes]

OK, it's been a month, so let's get this going again.
Try this ....................

 

[buffnut453]

Initial gut reaction was DH Dragon/Rapide but I don't think that's right.

 

[Airframes]

Not a Dragon Rapide.

You stole my mixer head!!!!!!!!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

It looks like a generator prop on a glider. Me-163?
