The original Dornier "Flying Pencil?"

[skytrain10]

Hi Graeme....no, not the Flying Pencil.

[Noyade]

I was joshing with ya mate! It's the Zmaj R-1

[HarmoniousDragmaster]

Well the last few have left me completely nonplussed, hence my silence, but I just wanted to say hi to graeme, and everyone else, you might like to give this new Dr Who trailer a look, and get ready with the pause button to see a British WW2 Dalek in Khaki, complete with blackout covers over its lights and a union jack under the eyestalk, and Spitfires that seem to be attacking the Dalek saucer fleet. I've got to see whats going on here when its broadcast in a few weeks, lol

[skytrain10]

Graeme...yep it is the Zmaj R-1. Over to you.

[Noyade]

Thanks Ken. You floored me when you said it wasn't the Dornier! Then I had to think laterally...

G'day Wayne! Julie and I saw the episode recently where the Dr "regenerates" but couldn't understand what all the tears were about?! He does it regularly so why all the talk about "dying?" I think Timothy Dalton also appeared. Anyway, we both agreed that we don't like the new Dr. Thanks for the link.

See what you make of this...

C-119????? (or C-82?)

SCrub that...its not a C-119 serial

[skytrain10]

Hughes XF-11?

Serial number gives it away!

[Noyade]

Sorry mate but no. The serial number is the clue. Fairly significant aviation accident, especially for the individual involved.

[Ridge Runner]

You know I had that in my mind! My mouth (fingers) just didn't want to say it!!!!! RR

44-70155/70156 Hughes XF-11
Redesignated XR-11.
70155 crashed in flames Beverley Hills, CA July 7, 1946. Pilot Howard Hughes badly injured.
Prop had gone into reverse pitch while in flight.

[Noyade]

Whoa! you guys are quick! It is the XF-11 Ken! How about a Dornier mate?! lol.

[skytrain10]

Cheers Graeme....like the graphics!

This one is NOT a Dornier....!

[Noyade]

Don't think, just type!

C-82...?

[Ridge Runner]

But it is a Fairchild product? A C-82???

No... its a B-26 conversion?

[skytrain10]

No, not a C-82 or a Fairchild product.

[skytrain10]

But it is a B-26 conversion RR....but which one (this one does NOT bear the Invader or B-26 name).

[Ridge Runner]

check out #7379 above mate

I can't wade through these....

Executive Transport

But... how about On-Mark Marksman??? Or the Marketeer???

[Noyade]

its a B-26 conversion

Lateral thinking! You mean as in Martin, not Douglas like the Marksman?

[skytrain10]

This is based on the Douglas aircraft....and to the best of my knowledge is the only conversion featuring a substantially fatter fuselage.

So its NOT an OnMark....

[Noyade]

Lot of simultaneous posts happening...and they're changing with each F5!
