Yes it is the XB-51. There aren't too many three engined jet aircraft around I guess, but well done. You have control.

Thanks planegill. I must admit it was the three sets of engine instruments that led me to the XB-51.
Here is the next one, I am sure this will not last long.

If it is, dn and blast, cos I thought it might be the Nakajima Kikka. But I was too scared to say.. looks like something from that era tho'.

Edit. If it is the Gekko, well done

I am not 100 percent sure either, but if it is any consolation, I initially thought it was the Ginga.
