The What is it? Game

[Graeme]

Oh is it the Paris biz jet

There ya go! Yep, the Morane Saulnier MS.760C Paris III.

that was based on that French trainer with the V tail?

No, the V-tail was the the Potez-Air Fouga Magister - which was the rival to the Morane Saulnier MS.755 Fleuret (which the Paris was based on). The Fleuret lost out to the Magister...

Take it away Jim...

 

[Capt. Vick]

Ah, I guess close enough.

[Capt. Vick]

Correct again!

 

[Graeme]

Thanks Jim!

 

[Capt. Vick]

[Geedee]

Reckon you might have that one matey. I was thinking the SU25 Frogfoot

 

[Capt. Vick]

[Graeme]

Sorry gents, I uploaded the wrong photo.
But I can still run with it.............

So, not from the USSR Gary, and not Polish Jim, but it is on a pole in Argentina.

[Graeme]

MS.760

That's him Dave - a "Double Paris Challenge". All yours mate!

 

[GrauGeist]

Cool...pretty distinctive nose setup on this crate. From the looks of this photo, it was taken while it was a gate guard...not sure what it's condition is today.

Ok, on to the next challenge!

 

[Capt. Vick]

Stearman XA-21?

 

[razor1uk]

I noticed the E219 has some propaganda ispired paint on it..

As for the pic a post or two above, it almost looks like a nose glazing of a A-20 Havock/Boston(?) crossed with a B-24 Liberator, so its definately seems American..

 

[Geedee]

Well done Jim. Currently sat looking at the original photo...aint she a purdy looking beastie, deffo one I've never heard before !

 

[T Bolt]

North American NA-40

 

[GrauGeist]

Really good guess, Glenn, but Jim nailed it right off the bat!

It's the Stearman X-100, designated the XA-21. There was only one airframe built and the the original configuration was the greenhouse canopy. It was later changed to allow for better pilot visability.

Ok Jim, it's your turn!
