And another one

you may have cottoned on that I like civilian aircraft most, especially the corporate jets - sleek, stunning beautiful - and wayyy out of my league.

Should I shout Pontoon then, oops I mean 'Blackjack' TupolevTu-160?

Should have realised by your panache for aircraft from the eastern bloc...

way way out of my league too.

yep TU160 Blackjack, (B1B-ski)

Obviously too easy for you, this will be too, but it's one of my all time favourite 'planes - did thousands of miles on these in my youth, Ahh happy days.

p.s. enough for one night...over and out.

How about this one?!?! :)

I think that's Vickers answer to the Mosquito, only the vertical tail looks more DH than Vickers

a bit of research needed!

No idea here, despite having built model planes for much longer than I've been building boats! It looks a lot like a Westland Welkin to me, except that the wings are too short and the tailplane is in the wrong place.

How about a De Haviland Hornet?

Nose and tail are right, but engines and wings way not so - I'm sure I've seen these wings on a Vickers experimental twin.

Wonder what the engines are - RR Exe?

I'll put you out of your misery.... it's a Vickers f7 41

Someone else got one? If not I'm going to look in my really obscure folder!

Beriev Bartini VVA 14 - Anyone know where I can find more info on it?

cos918 · « **Reply #297 on:** July 28, 2008, 07:51:59 pm »

on the ball to night martin. But to be correct you got a photo of a 14m1p. It started life as the vva 14 then was converted to a WIG craft and called the 14m1p as you can see were her extra front engines were.
