Sorry keith, not the Vladimar Yermolov / Bartini designed DB 240. To recap the aircraft was of soviet design but did not come from the following stables:
MiG
Polikarpov
Petlyakov
Tupolev
Antonov
Ilyushin
It was a twin engined experimental aircraft of unusual design.

sycamore
As you say it would appear that not many read the Aeroplane these days, I thought when I put this one up it would be spotted immediately. It is indeed the Belyaev DB-LK.
, which was the subject of a recent article in the "Aeroplane".
Do I take it that you are declaring "Open House", if so after all the effort norwich put in I suggest he takes up the challenge.

Ozbeowulf has it, It's said to be Goodyear Blimp N1A "Mayflower" photo of 1971.
Difficult to track down as Goodyear seem to use the same registration and names for different craft ! Over to you Glenn.

Thanks, Keith...
When I confirmed my initial guesstimate, I found a 1989 photo. Even 18 years later, you can't mistake that big wood-rimmed pitch trimmer!
Here's a challenge from the big bird end of the ramp....
