Guess the aircraft thread!

[Mike Rotch]

Russian markings, but looks british to me.

 

[911_Carrera]

Southern European

 

[Mike Rotch]

Italian?

 

[911_Carrera]

Not Italian

 

[Mike Rotch]

French?

 

[DQuaN]

It must be a Soko J-1 Variant, as the J-1 is identical but has two seats.

*edit* no it doesn't, it is a J-1

 

[Mike Rotch]

I can confirm that DQuan is correct. Your go.

 

[DQuaN]

Here's a funky one............

 

[Mike Rotch]

Heh. Is it a ME-163 Komet?

That it is 👍

Looks like a Whestalnd Whelkin or DeHavilland Hornet with Luftwaffe markings.... Hrm.

 

[Mike Rotch]

I posted a Westland earlier in the thread, so I wouldnt make the same mistake twice. It isnt a De Hav either.

 

[911_Carrera]

I think it might be a Focke-Wulfe 187 Falke (Falcon)

Apparently it was a superb plane that never made it into production.

Confirmed by a trip to Google. Good call, 911. Your go!

 

[911_Carrera]

The paintjob makes this one quite difficult to make-out.

 

[ExigeEvan]

outside guess, F-105?

 

[Duke]

No, I don't think it's a Thud. My first guess was BAC Jaguar, but that's not right either.

 

[911_Carrera]

Not a Republic Thunderchief

Not a Sepecat Jaguar

 

[keram]

Dasault Mirage?

 

[keram]

Alenia AMX

I changed my mind sorry.

 

[DQuaN]

It almost looks like a BAe Hawk

 

[Duke]

It's not a Hawk - this is a shoulder wing; Hawks are low-wing. It's definitely not a Mirage either.

 

[miata13B]

F-111 - although it looks like a fixed wing. . .

 

[keram]

Search Alenia AMX it looks exactly like it.

 

[Duke]

Yeah, confirmed it's an Aeromacchi AMX. I found it in that Gruppo colorscheme, even. Good go, keram, you're up!

 

[911_Carrera]

It IS an AMX International AMX

I thought this particular one was an Embraer - I don't know that there are any parts that distinguish it from the Aermacchi/Aeritalia. Since found other pictures that say it is an Italian one, not Brazilian, as confirmed by the Duke.

 

[keram]

Its not quite finished...

 

[Ev0]

Easy, Gotha 229

 

[Mike Rotch]

Confirmed for Ev0. Your go.
