SincoTC
19th May 2012, 21:52
I thought it may need a little help as it's been a trifle slow lately :)

HQ is correct, it's FPNA's A-36 Vulcan :D

Located directly on the airfield in Sebring Florida, Float Planes and Amphibs (FPNA) designs, builds, and flies their own breed of aircraft ranging from ultralights on floats, to weight shift, to their fixed-wing factory-built S-LSA like the high-wing Valor A-22, the Cape Town seaplane, right up to the twin-engine Vulcan.

Harley Quinn has requested an Open House

The "Cryptic" thread was shut down due to lack of interest/participation.

This one is heading the same way.

If you win a challenge it would be respectful to post another for others who may be interested, or declare an open house so that others may take up the challenge.

I therefore have no further interest in this thread and quit.

Best of luck.

An Axis bomber aircraft,Graeme. I am not too sure that by removing the Flame Damper, it would readily identify the aircraft/engine type. The photograph is available on the Web.

Savoia-Marchetti SM-82 I believe. I am intrigued to know if it was fitted to only one of the three engines?

SM.82 Flame Damper of German design, but I have no idea if they were fitted to all three engines.
