Dear oldpax, we mostly get photos from searching the net, post them to a photo host site, such as "...photobucket.com" or "...imageshack.org" and then post them on the forum. That is how one participates in this thread. The winner is supposed to post a photo challenge within 24-hrs of notification of a correct identification.

Good evening Mel,

That looks like a Dornier Do-23G to me ??

Open House if correct please, as I'm just on a short break before returning to work!

My only previous picture regrettably coincided with a magazine feature on the aircraft in question, so I hope this one doesn't...

Morning aerobelly,

If you edit your post above and add image placeholders around you posted URL like this [img]your url here[/img] your image will appear and make it easier for viewers

Looks like a good challenge, but I have no idea at present and have to go now

Evansb has it.

It's actually a CTSW, but the main difference is the wings and the cockpits are (AFAIK) identical.


Over to you.....

It is two-engined, but it is not Russian. Only 6 were built. It does appear some side-panels have been removed.
