| carson1934 I have compiled a listing of almost 40 aircraft types with [U]contrarotating props. I hope this is helpful for anybody interested. Advising me of any omission to this list is more than appreciated. carson1934 |

| Again the sleek lines of the aircraft sugest a British design, like the hawker Spanish Fury, but the spats are completely different. Perhaps again an US design?? Maybe a Curtiss XP-23??? http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/sha...-1234P-011.jpg Last edited by Emilio Lafuente; 03-11-2009 at 07:53 AM. |

| carson1934 Is there anyone in the forum who might come up with a picture of Lazarew ChAI-3 a russian all wing aircraft of 1936? I only found one in the "100 Jahre nurfluegel". Is this all that's available?  carson1934 |

Convair XF-92 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia shows aircraft with tail number '6682'. I'd guess the XP-82 comes from a mixup of MX-82 and XP(XF)-92. | |

 I think it was young Storch that showed your Chinese biplane photo way back somewhere in this monster thread and I forget what he called it, but I've only known it as the "Fushing Biplane"...see here... http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/avi...ww2-10060.html (Secret Chinese and Japanese Aircraft of WW2)  | ||
