The What is it? Game (3 Viewers)

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Nope, not a P-38, not a fighter. One more clue given.

 

[GrauGeist]

Lockheed Lodestar?

 

[norab]

Lockheed Hudson ?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Not of Lockheed manufacture.
Served as training craft after WWII.

 

[norab]

AT-11 Kansan

 

[Procrastintor]

Who names a plane the kansan? Warhawk, Thunderbolt, Mustang (eye goes lazy) KANSAN!

 

[Procrastintor]

OOOOH, Kansan as in Kansas citizen duh, I thought it was pronounced KAN-SAN. Sorry anyone from kansas

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Nope, not a Kansan. It is not a transport.

 

[Capt. Vick]

B-25?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Way to go Capt. Vic!!!

 

[Airframes]

Darn! I was thinking B-25 from the outset, but then thought "Nah, can't be!"

 

[Capt. Vick]

Always go with your first thought Terry! Of course if that doesn't work, try your second, third, forth and fifth (in that order).

OK gents, try this:

 

[Airframes]

Liberator Mk1 ?
With the B-25, I had no idea what I was looking at, and I made the mistake of letting the colours deceive me. When it was stated it was a twin, I thought maybe the Navy version of the B-25, but then forgot it when Aaron said it wasn't Navy!

 

[T Bolt]

Landing gear folds the wrong way for a Liberator. Can't think of another high wing 4 engine with sideways folding gear

 

[Capt. Vick]

I was hoping someone would say early Lib, but as T-Bolt points out, it is not. It is NOT a Consolidated product.

After the war I'm sure if it survived, they beat this "Plow", from a sword into a plowshare...

 

[Airframes]

Hmm. Methinks perhaps an Italian type? But no idea what, without going to my library - which is currently in four, tall, and heavy piles, awaiting construction of the new bookshelves !

 

[Geedee]

To me, the props look 'German'

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I was thinking the same thing Gary. Me-264 maybe.?

 

[Capt. Vick]

German, but not 264

 

[wuzak]

Arado Ar 232?
