BF-108 Taifun ?

Sorry. not a 108.

We've identified the aircraft from the post No 9429. We are now waiting for Buffnut (who correctly identified it as a a Wildcat) to post a photo from anywhere on any 'plane and we will try and identify that one. Whoever guesses correctly will then post a photo from yet another plane etc etc.

Wait for the new photo and join in

Ok...I took the subtle hint that, yet again, I'm delinquent!

I'm thinking this one might be too easy for some of you...then again, I seem to recall saying something similar before.

Lockheed Constellation ?

 

[buffnut453]

Not a Connie.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Armstrong Whitworth A.W.52 Flying wing?

 

[buffnut453]

Told you someone would get it quickly. A.W. 52 it is - IMHO, one of the most attractive flying wings ever built. Here's the full pic.

Good one, and well done.

Try this...

Polikarpov I-16 cockpit? Although the windscreen frame and the trim look wrong for that.

T!

 

[Capt. Vick]

Sorry no...

 

[GrauGeist]

Gloster E.28 cockpit?

Try this...

Messerschmitt Me 209 V1 (the purpose built racing aircraft, not the follow-on to the Bf 109).

T!
