The What is it? Game (6 Viewers)

[Airframes]

Might be ugly Neil, but it's a descendant of the Wellington, basically an up-dated, much improved, tri-cycle undercart version of the Valleta (Viking being the civvy version), used to teach, originally, bomb aimers, then virtually all airborne trades, and really was a flying classroom.

It's been kinda quiet here so I thought I'd post this one.

I've seen that before, can't remember if it's a rocket launcher or an exhaust type

SBD Dauntless?

SBD Dauntless?

It does look a little like dive breaks from that angle, but no, not a Dauntless.

 

[Airframes]

F86D 'Sabre Dog'.

 

[T Bolt]

Very good Terry!

 

[Airframes]

The missile pack was the giveaway! I'll post something when I get a chance tomorrow.

 

[Airframes]

OK, try this one - shouldn't take long !

 

[Geedee]

Hawker Hunter ? That little black oblong thing is what gives it away to me. My first thought was a Meteor but they dont have that 'little black oblong thing' !

 

[Airframes]

Little black ... oh, the auxilliary vent. Don't have notched flaps for the drop tanks either!
Yep, it's a Hunter F6. Take it away Gary.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

Good one! This one's either very easy or a bit tricky...

 

[Geedee]

Looks like a Mosquito, target tug jobbie at Duxford ?

Cheers Terry, heres where I'd seen it before....and sorry about calling it a littel black oblong thing, i'm not that much good at jet stuff

I'll put the next one up tomorrow.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

Damn you, yes It's easy if you're familiar with the exact aircraft in question!

 

[razor1uk]

I don't know the colour scheme, target tug marking perhaps - 'Ante Ju' (Ju-52) had yellow/white paint on tips, not the root area, but it has appears to have a flying flap/aileron....

Fairly Barracuda?
(I'm gonna really kick myself for that answer)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

You should be kicking yourself for that answer, I'd already said Geedee was right It is Duxford's TT.35

 

[Airframes]

Yep, this one.

 

[Geedee]

Okeydokey chaps.

Here's tonights teaser for you...

Handley Vickers NJ1 Nostril .......
