| Nice drawing! I always preferred Commando books where the drawings of the aircraft were accurate looking  Here's one to have a go at, it is a bit obscure.  Is there any sort of ruling on the types of pictures posted here? Do they have to be '30's/WW2 or can you post anything? |

| "Sorry Waynos. but you'll have to accept that others have Jane's '38..." lol, fair enough. scratch that as a source then, or better still - don't announce where they come from As to your pic, I haven't a clue - it looks a bit 1932, but the '38 Janes is my oldest source. I shall have to dig deep or wait for somebody else to get it. btw, are unbuilt projects allowed or must they have flown? Some unbuilt projects are obviously just a designers doodles but some progressed quite far without flying obviously. |

| I found it, the Bleriot 111! I did think it was a Bleriot but didn't want to guess in case I was miles out and looked stupid, lol. "if they weren't constructed or at least a mock-up that was photographed, " that sounds like a very sensible demarcation. Here's one that shouldn't be difficult, I include it here because I like it  Last edited by Waynos; 05-24-2008 at 08:03 AM. Reason: changed image name |

| Same place as yours because I had to crop that very caption off to post it. I forget which book (its been on my pc a very long time) but its one of several 'worst planes' books I have. Here's another entertaining photo, id the plane?  |

| Looks like a T-6 with a raised and reprofiled rear fuselage, for a movie maybe? |

| Looks more like a Wirraway, though the USAAF symbol...  And the span looks a bit short for either a T-6 or a Wirraway, and it apears to be a single-seater, possably a Boomerang, that insignia still bothers me though...  Last edited by kool kitty89; 05-24-2008 at 08:19 PM. |
