Bert,

That REALLY is a toughie! Any clues?

Totally at random - Fairchild 71?

Saab you're spot on and I know you didn't do it through the properties 'cos I always disguise them. Wow what an ace.

Sorry, it's too involved now. I actually tried to post a Canadair Argus but it didn't work. Saab did the rest. I reckon it's his go now.

Sorry, I didn't mean to detract from Saab's accomplishment. Sure, it's your call who goes next.

Wright Hughes 1B (Hughes H-1 Racer reproduction).

Sadly this aircraft crashed in 2003, killing its builder Jim Wright.
