Guess the aircraft thread!

[///M-Spec]

It is not the French Balzac.

[The359]

It's definatly not the Yak-141, that has square air intakes.

 

[Ev0]

Sea Harrier?

 

[Solid Fro]

It looks Russian to me.

 

[Duke]

Yeah, look at the tip on the vertical stab, and they little oval bit in the windscreen. That just shouts "Sovietski".

 

[The359]

Yak-36M Forger?

 

[supra229]

That airbrake is odd.

The inside is painted red, porbably a naval aircraft?

 

[Rossell]

I keep thinking thats a Harrier

It is technically the Yak-38 "Forger". But NATO called it the Yak-36M for years before it realized it was actually a different design from the experimental VSTOL plane "Freehand".

Close enough for me. The359 has it.

[The359]

I love these experimental planes

 

[Event]

umm, a plane from the planet of the donuts?

 

[Ev0]

I've seen that before, I can't think of a name though!!!!!

 

[Solid Fro]

Ya, I've seen it too! I think it was built to move troops across the battlefield quickly.

 

[Ev0]

Is it the avrocar? I'm pretty sure it's a Canadian design!

 

[supra229]

Yeah I've seen it too just don't know the name

Honest I have seen it though! not in real life but pictures.

 

[ExigeEvan]

It reminds me of the 'flying pancake' from 'Secret weapons over Normandy'

 

[The359]

Ev0 has it, it's the Avro Canadian VZ-9A Avrocar

By the way, are we going to get an update to the leaderboard?

 

[Ev0]

Can we have an updated leaderboard plz?

And here's the next pic!

 

[Duke]

I believe that's a Bleriot Monoplane.

 

[Ev0]

You got it!

i didnt know this was a competition?

 

[ExigeEvan]

everything in life is a competition, otherwise, why would anyone strive to do anything?

 

[Duke]

OK, here we go!

Honestly, I don;t have time to go back through the threads and do the score count. But if somebody wants to spoon feed me the info, I will gladly edit the leaderboard and try to keep after it.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Some sort of Cessna perhaps....

Edit: Nope, aint no type of Cessna..

Edit Edit: I think it is a Piper Tripacer. Can someone confirm this?

 

[Solid Fro]

Yup, it's the Flying Milk Stool.

Good find Mike. 👍

 

[Mike Rotch]

Cool. Try this one on for size

 

[DQuaN]

It's the plane that crashes in the film Alive!!

 

[Mike Rotch]

Nope, it aint.

 

[DQuaN]

Is it a BEECH of some sort?

 

[Mike Rotch]

Nope, it isnt a Beech of any sort.
