Guess the aircraft thread!

[Solid Fro]

Nope.

A Strike Eagle is a two-seater. It's definitely special.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Obviously had to goto Google.

The F15C and F15A were the only two variants with single seats.

the "C" had special features like additional radar and more fuel. Is that it?

 

[Solid Fro]

It's a special A model. I won't say anymore.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Are you referring to the F-15A "Streak Eagle"?

 

[Solid Fro]

You got it!

 

[Mike Rotch]

Excellent. Nice find by the way. I'll have one up very soon.


EDIT: Be back in 60 mins with a pic - sorry..

 

[Mike Rotch]

👍

 

[Solid Fro]

At first glance, it's obviously a German aircraft, WWII era. The 4 engines and the way it is banking says to me that it's some sort of bomber. That thing on the bottom is throwing me off, I don't know what it is.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Well you got the era and origin right

 

[Ev0]

FW 200 Condor?

 

[Mike Rotch]

You suck Ev0

Your turn

 

[Ev0]

Stickin with the big planes...

 

[Mike Rotch]

Vickers Vimy

 

[Mike Rotch]

Well if i am wrong, ignore, but if i am right then here is the next one:

 

[Party for GT4]

Is it a ****er?

 

[Party for GT4]

Sorry, I meant a Fokker (was thinking about something else)

 

[Jay]

FW 190

 

[Duke]

Nope, most assuredly not a Focke Wulf. The wing plan says Heinkels, but I can't come up with a designation off the top of my head.

He 111 is their bomber... is this an He 112?

It isn't a Vimy.

Yeah, not with the four tractor/pusher engines it's not. It is a Vickers though, I think a Behemoth or a Gargantua or some monster name like that.

[edit] Wait, Handley-Page? Gotta dig. [/edit]

[edit] Heh, further edit! The tractor/pusher setup is nagging me... and I'd assumed it was British after the Vimy comment above... but is it a Gotha?

And yes, Regis, that's my final answer... [/edit]

 

[Ev0]

Nope, not a Gotha

 

[Solid Fro]

Damn, it sure does look like a Vimy. A shot in the dark: Vickers Virginia. (I don't think it looks big enough!)

Doh!

He 111 is their bomber... is this an He 112

It is a Heinkel, but not a 111 or 112

Not with the tractor pusher puller engines its not

Hmf. Didnt even see the twin propped engines 👍

 

[Mike Rotch]

That was an excellent find Ev0 👍

As it turns out it isnt even a Vickers!

If I am correct it is a Handley-Page v/1500. Here is another view of it with wings folded.

EDIT: As I am sure Neon ( )would have got my Heinkel-100 in his next post, I will dig up something more.......difficult

 

[Mike Rotch]

Firstly, sorry for the 3-in-a-row posts, but they are almost 2 hrs apart...

Here is the next one, hopefully tougher then my previous ones

 

[Solid Fro]

Man, it REALLY does look like a Vickers. Good work Mike! 👍

 

[Mike Rotch]

Thanks man

 

[Ev0]

I've seen that plane before, but I can't think of a name or manufacturer!!!

 

[Mike Rotch]

It aint a P-38
