'Tis true, I was passing through the restoration workshop at Duxford a few weeks ago and happened to have a camera in my hand. Apologies for not noting it had gone before.

Great photograph Gengis. Please do not apologise with some 277 aircraft in the list it is easily done. I see cringe has kindly updated the list, thanks for that cringe. So Gengis I am sure you have a few that have not yet been posted.

Clint

How could we object when you started this wonderful thread. Could this be a Commonwealth 185 Skyranger.

No, it's not a 185 Skyranger.

I'll go for another wild guess, hopefully not too inaccurate!
How about an Aermacchi-Lockheed AL60, possibly the SA built version which I think is called an Atlas Kudu?
BTW, this thread is loads-a-fun! Who cares if some of them get repeated!

Sorry to interrupt, and if out of line please direct me to the proper area.

I have a lot of pictures of airplanes, some rather strange, that I have flown including cockpits, the PQ-14 is one. However they are in slide format and I don't have clue how to show these pictures on line.

Can anybody help?

Excellent thread by the way!

Either go to a commercial service, or buy a slide scanner.

All-in-one printer/scanner/slide scanners such as the Epson RX620 (I have a slightly older model and it's excellent) start at a few hundred pounds. Do a web search (or look at the small-ads in the back of camera magazines) and you'll find lots of companies who do slide to digital transfers; prices vary a lot, and it's usually cheapest to have them done in batches.

Not a Murphy Moose or Helio Courier.

It's European.

Dornier 27 then? I think it's one of those short field types hence the guess at the Helio.

Beagle Airedale perhaps? On second thoughts not the Airedale as that had control yokes so I will go for the Beagle Terrier.

That's the only one I know apart rom the Wilga (which we've had). I'll have to leave someone else to make the final connection.
