The What is it? Game

[T Bolt]

I agree with Terry DC-3

 

[Geedee]

Well done Terry

Taken at Basler ...during Oshkosh 2004. Was in the 'bone yard' of Daks awaiting rebuild to turboprop power.

 

[Airframes]

Good to know it'll be airborne again, especially as it's a military C47, even though pistons give way to turbo props.
Another small one, but shouldn't be too difficult.

It's a pitot tube ! Probably a F/A-18...

A-4 Skyhawk?

 

[Geedee]

I think its a Tornado ?


Edit. nope, on second thoughts that pitot is right where the in flight refuelling probe normaly sits.

 

[T Bolt]

MiG-21

 

[Smoke]

English Electric Lightning?

 

[Airframes]

Glenn's got it with MiG 21. This is the ex- Hungarian MiG at Duxford.
Take it away Glenn !

 

[T Bolt]

This one should be interesting

 

[B-17engineer]

Of course Glenn its a whojamawhatit.

 

[T Bolt]

Close Harrison, Close!

 

[Airframes]

Yikes, it's an Alien!! Oh,hang on! Phew, it's only the ar*e end of an aircraft!
Haven't a bl**dy clue! Can't say I've ever seen a cluster of nav / tail lights like that before.

 

[B-17engineer]

Close Harrison, Close!

Thought I was right...

I was almost sure...

 

[Smoke]

OV-1 Mohawk, E-2 Hawkeye or C-2 Greyhound?

 

[T Bolt]

Not a OV-1 Mohawk, E-2 Hawkeye or C-2 Greyhound, but Terry is right about it being the "ar*e end of an aircraft"

 

[rochie]

A-10 Thunderbolt II

 

[T Bolt]

You guessed it Karl! The A-10 at the Air Force Museum. Take it away!

Objection...my answer needs to be reviewed....

Objection overruled. 'whojamawhatit' had never been ofecially linked to the A-10 Thunderbolt II
