The What is it? Game

Glenn is very close.

This 'wing' is at the front, not the back.

And no, I've never seen one of these before I took this picture !

Huge clue...It is not a standard fitment to the 'Plane, its a bit like a an after-market 'bolt-on' .... a bit of googling should provide the answer.

 

[T Bolt]

Cessna 182?

Glenn's got it for sure I think. Well done Glenn. Another angle:

Way to go Glenn!!!!!!!!

 

[Airframes]

Good one Glenn ! Judging by the 'beefy' landing gear, it's for bush flying - I'm guessing that canard/'nose plane' with elevator is for extra lift on short field take off?
Good one Gary !

 

[Geedee]

Well done Glenn

Captured this oddity at Popham airfield back in 2006. Never seen one before and havent seen one since ! Methinks it looks quite cool with the wheel spats on.

Right Glenn.....time for a hard one please !!!!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Very, very sneaky Gary.

 

[Geedee]

Very, very sneaky Gary.

Too righty mate, got the idea from your cropped shot of the landing light...thought it was time to get sneaky !!!

 

[Airframes]

Looks much better with the normal landing gear and spats. The 'bush' version looked like an R/C model I thought !

And to think......I gave someone a idea.......THAT IS SCARY!!!!

[T Bolt]

How's this for sneaky

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

What is it?

 

[T Bolt]

Part of an airplane

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Ok, HINT PLEASE!!!!!!!

 

[Airframes]

Ah ha! It's a Hippocroccofrog dispensing pod Mk 3A, attached to that thing the guy wanted colour pictures of ... maybe !?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Well now Terry, you do realize this puts an end to that thread.

 

[Geedee]

Well now Terry, you do realize this puts an end to that thread.

Nope...we're OK, its the wrong color !

I've seen that red thing but cannot remember...yet...what its from...grrrrr

 

[T Bolt]

Gary's on the right track, on most of these aircraft it's unpainted.
Another clue:
This type of aircraft is a continuation of a previous model by the same manufacture, at least in name anyway.
