Silhouette challenge

[Noyade]

Thanks Mel. Did you scan that from page 199 of Mason's book? Did you notice the wheels?!

I'm sober David, but I'm about to watch "Thunderball" on the telly (love the Vulcan part), so my light will be on, but I'll only respond during the commercial breaks...lol!

Here we go...

[Lightning Mate]

Heinkel He 46 ?

[Noyade]

Not a Heinkel mate. But to speed things along, it is German.

(Did Jessica Watson make the news over there?)

Good Morning David, Good Evening Graeme.

Did you scan that from page 199 of Mason's book? Did you notice the wheels?!

The answer to your question is yes, I hope that was the state before the overhaul.

[HarmoniousDragmaster]

The wing reminds me very much of the Henschel Hs 126, but it clearly isn't that. The Hs 122 of a couple of years earlier perhaps?

[Noyade]

Comercial break

Sorry mate, not Henschel.

(Thunderball - Wouldn't the interior of the Avro Vulcan still be on the "secret list" in 1965?)

Yes it indeed would.

(Did Jessica Watson make the news over there?)

Yep.

Mel,

We are the only players here, and I'm not having any luck mate.

[Noyade]

Commercial break...clue

I'm not having any luck mate

I found the photo in an old book...

[Lightning Mate]

Was the engine exclusively a radial, 'cuz I've been there.

I think the engine is a Siemens-Halske.

Evening Graeme,

Could it be the Focke Wulf (S) 39B ?? I've found one photo without a Townend ring and it looks very similar.

One only built in 1932 and then sold to the Soviet Union. Fitted with a Seimens Sh 22B Jupiter

[Noyade]

Could it be the Focke Wulf (S) 39B ??

Aw mate, you're nearly there!

This machine was designed to compete with the He 46 but proved too unstable

I think the engine is a Siemens-Halske.

A Siemens SAM 22B 9-cyl A-C Radial, 660 hp.

[SincoTC]

Hi Graeme,

Part of the page says FW A-39 is that it ? then there's the FW-40 but that link is broken!!

[Lightning Mate]

Focke Wulf Stetzler ?

[Noyade]

FW-40

Done deal Sinco!

The net calls it the Fw-40 but the book calls it the A40...





Bond has defeated SPECTRE and will return in "You Only Live Twice."
Just past midnight here...Bye!

Thanks Graeme,

So many broken links on a useful site, very frustrating!!

Sweet dreams mate

Sorry, but I'll have to declare Open House as I have to go now, probably 'till Monday. F5 Ctrl V LM

[Lightning Mate]

F5 Ctrl V LM

No sooner said than done.
