| Senior Member | I remember walking through the replica which was once hangered at Wangaratta Airworld museum. Certainly more realistic from the outside. Sadly Airworld closed down a number of years ago. I also remember the Stinson at Joe Drages Airworld in Wangaratta, it was not there last time i passed through in 2006. However it is now the home of Murray Griffiths "Precision Aerospace" and is involved in the restoration of various WW2 aircraft including some rare Japanese aircraft as well as P40s and P39s. There were still a few aircraft of the Drage collection there including C47, Mirrage III, Wirraway, Wackett Trainer and CAC Winjeel and DH Drover.

| Yepp, it's the Il-400, in fact the third prototype known al Il-3, made by the "King of Fighters". Here's some info about it: I-1 (Il-400) by Tessitori Krabat |

| Looks fast. It's neither Hawker nor Gloster, probably a US plane? There should be thing like the "Rothmaler" (in Germany a standard work to identify plants) for aircraft. Put in for example number of engines, wings, seats and you got a selection of planes. Then finetune the thing and you got fewer every time. In the end you got it. Just an idea that came on my way to work this morning. Krabat |

Typical German inventiveness? Excellent idea, let me know when you build one! Someone in this forum mentioned an 'image search engine' where with some programme you enter a picture or photo and it searches the internet for similar images. It'd be good for AviaQuiz. | |
