You are very close. This aircraft has flown, but not under the designation SM-95. It is the GE H80 powered Technoavia Rysachock multi-purpose aircraft. Intended as an AN-2 replacement, the aircraft is currently performing certification trials. You have control.

Morning RR,

I don't think so mate, he has won a few in the past, but has never been able to post a challenge so far and eventually gone OH! Also, the "twelve hour" guideline is well passed, so an automatic Open House is appropriate. Go for it!!

It's been a quiet weekend, I looked in a couple of times, but there was never any "names" on a very short active list. Hopefully skytrain and RegDep will be back today and my "dog/house sitting duties" are over midweek, 'til then' I'm a bit scarce!

RegDep will be back today
He is! Good afternoon gentlemen.

Just asking myself: Is this aircraft flying away or closing. I.e. How's the tail size relating to the rest of the aircraft….

The more I look at it, the more it looks like one of the several (don't know which) Ju.288 prototypes…...

Goos morning / evening gentlemen. Sorry for my slow.

Here you are



Nice weekend at the beach Reg?
Just loved it. Not what many would call that (temp 0 - +12 °C) but 45 km of in most part virgin sandy beach, in good shape to walk. GiggleEarth that : start from Peenemünde (visited the museum to commemorate von Braun's 99th birth day last week ) and go SE to Poland.

Watch through your 3rd floor hotel window fishermen carrying fresh fish from shore (50 m away) to the hotel kitchen in the morning. My way of fun, believe me.

Will be off-line for a couple of hours….

Sorry Sinco,

I love taking part in the challenge ,but as it has been said ,i am not able to post pics on here,so if it is mandatory to post a pic after winning the challenge,i am afraid i shall have to bow out and not take part again,thanks for all the enjoyment that i have got from the challenge

irishair, I don't think anyone here wishes you not to play. It's only that after posting a response, just say "OH if correct", and the rest of us are free to post a new challenge. By the thread rules, no-one can post unless called winner or an Open House is declared.

Play along and enjoy the game!

And time for a 12 hour clue: Don't bother starting from Americas. Maybe alphabetical order is the best bet.
