I can provide the answer to this one...

But I have no idea what this is, and would appreciate any input..

from AviaQuiz - Name That Plane!

Never have seen that one. Man that looks like Blackburn, but can't find anything.

Glider · 10-21-2007, 12:34 PM

How about this A Provost

Close. Clue-What other aircraft competed for selection as the RAF's standard pilot trainer at the time?

Glider · 10-21-2007, 07:53 PM

Handley Page HPR2, they don't half look the same

That's the one!

Quite a few training aircraft designed at this time looked very similar. The CAC Winjeel is another:

Warbird Alley: Commonwealth CA-25 Winjeel

Wingnut, ex-CAC employee? Stop holding back and start posting some of your experiences! I'd like to see some threads on some remarkable CAC aircraft and their projects. Were you involved in the Wamira project? Was CAC still around then?

In the meantime two more to ponder..

Glider · 10-23-2007, 09:50 AM

The second is almost certainly Swiss probably a test bed with (another guess) a dart engine

DerAdlerIstGelandet · 10-23-2007, 10:21 AM

the bottom one is Swiss. I can not remember the name of it. I saw one at the Sinsheim Museum here but I cant remember the name.

Wurger · 10-23-2007, 11:25 AM

If the bottom is a Swiss one it must be Pilatus.

A joke of course.

This is the Farner-Werke C-3605 Schlepp.The rest of info on the a/c there:

Federal Aircraft Factory C-3605 Schlepp - target-tug

In the first pic we can see Piaggio P.32.The link:

That's them Wurger! Too easy again.

Graeme · 10-23-2007, 10:29 PM

The Piper Super Cub is the chase plane. What is it chasing?

The pilot in the 'research' jet is Lockheed test pilot "Fish" Salmon.

The year is 1977.

Krabat42 · 10-28-2007, 02:28 PM

No ideas friends? Oh yes, it's good to have people to ask and wikipedia

It's a Ball-Bartoe JW-1 Jetwing, a 1970's research aircraft.

Oh, and I had an idea to make it more of a challenge: How about "he who knows the answer will give the next question"? Asking for hints is allowed of course.

Here's my next question:

Bravo! Well done Krabat! I thought that it was going to fall into the 'unsolvable' file again.

Yours?...(I like the AviaQuiz touch-still playing?) I'm thinking of a Fish, a Spear and a Fairey, but not in that order!
