I'll have a shot at a Blackhawk.

With ring bolts like that, I'm assuming they would be used to tie an airframe down to the deck of a carrier and again, I'm only guessing a chopper 'cos of the colour.

My first thought was a it belongs to a B25....Doolitle raid type of scenario.

At least you had some fun with it! It's all your Gary!

 

[Geedee]

Well thats one for the books !. I've only ever seen one once before and that was back 2004 at Oshkosh !. Believe it or not that was a totally random guess based purely on the colour of the skin, and I could only think of a chopper of some sort. I was going to suggest a Chinook !. I am surprised !!!

That was cracker of a shot Aaron, well done mate.

Rightyho chaps, have a go at this one...

 

[Airframes]

Camera port on a...... b*gg*red if I know ! I'll take a guess and say Hunter FR9.

 

[Geedee]

Sorry, not a Hunter

And its not a crop, its the full piccie.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I'm gonna need some clues.
Cause I ain't gotta clue.

 

[Geedee]

Four engines....sometimes five !

Thats not a a camera port in the picture...

 

[Geedee]

Sorry....seem to be having a few hiccups with posting !

 

[Marcogrifo]

Four engines....sometimes five !

Hmm, Avro Lancaster?

Thats not a a camera port in the picture...

It seems clear, and that wind screen frame makes me think it might be used for evacuation of some liquid of sort...

Cheers

 

[Marcogrifo]

Got it!

The sad last remains of last Avro Ashton:

Cheers

 

[Airframes]

Nice one! It used to be stored not far from me, near Woodford, but is now at Newark. Well done.

[Geedee]

It is indeed the Avro Ashton. I've been inside this bird at Newark.....and you know what ?....its as empty on the inside as my wallet !!!

Over to you

 

[Marcogrifo]

Another one to guess:

Cheers

 

[Capt. Vick]

Convair NB-36H?

 

[Marcogrifo]

Convair NB-36H?

Well done

Cheers

 

[Airframes]

That was quick! Huge nose gear on that thing !

 

[Grampa]

One of the most idiotic planes ever build. why? Because it's whas build to had a active nucklear reactor inside for flighttest. good what whould havde been if that thing crased?

 

[Capt. Vick]

Interesting aside about the NB-36, they said it was like flying a glider because the lead lining around the cockpit made it vertually sound-proof. Neat huh?

 

[vikingBerserker]

Wow, that actually is pretty cool!

 

[Geedee]

Bump !...

Heres one to keep things ticking over..
