Avro Anson

No, not an Anson.

 

[Simon Thomas]

Mosquito

 

[Airframes]

Yes indeed. It's the tail wheel "mudguard", in this instance on the prototype Mosquito at the DH Museum, Salisbury Hall.
Well done.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Well played Sir!

 

[Simon Thomas]

I was a bit lucky with that guess, as I have seen the tail of the Mosquito from about the same angle at CH2A in Windsor a few years ago.

I have not done this before, so please let me know if I have screwed up.

P-39?

Ok guys, I'm still without my computers (a year and a half later) and just have this crappy phone, so if any of you gents would like to take over, please do.

There is an incredible story about an american ( moved to Berlin as a kid ) who flew in WW 2 the Me 162 for the germans...and got wounded into his leg from a P-51 bullet in combat.

No thats a He 162. I replied to the post above mine. Never heard of a me 162. Have you?

 

[GrauGeist]

I'm sure they meant He162.

There was a Bf162, however.

V- tail, not a Bonanza, Photo taken at a GA field. It's the Cirrus Jet. (Although I'm surprised the tail isn't composite.) It's not a Fouga because it's missing the control horns. That kills the V-tail inventory.
