Looks like we've stalled? In IrfanView by clicking "Images" then "Jackson" the black is removed...magic...

you . I THOUGHT you meant I should go to see Yugoslav aircraft again, when I had asked if I should pop the same as for the previous challenge. I went, but did not find this Croatian one.... I even checked what is the Croatian and what is the Yugoslav roundel.

Somehow yopu will suffer from this, I do not yet know how.....

And I am going to bed and I ain't gonna wake up to take the standing ovations. If someone wants to have Open House, so be it.

Otherwise I post my challenge tomorrow MY morning time.

Quick morning coffee break - it reminds me of a Curtiss design - any connection with the XP-23? Failing that is it Yugoslav?

Morning/evening/morgen.


What should you do if an Aussie throws a grenade at you.
Pull the pin and throw it back.

Not that fast. It was posted to stay for at least 8 hours 20 minutes because over 1.800 (Fiat 42 all versions) were built.

Yes, one aircraft equipped with the Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine, estimated maximum speed 518 km/h (323 mph). Also known as the CR.42DB. The one and only of that version.

Over to you, assuming that your next is an easy one, or you do not go to bed all night.

EDIT:
What should you do if an Aussie throws a grenade at you.
Well yes. But they keep throwing my challenges back without pin

An Aussie is proof that God has a sense of humour.

Sorry, just looking at Mel's list...

Pull the pin and throw it back
Mate, are these Irish jokes and you just replace Irish with Aussie?...

Don't worry....I will move onto monoplanes, mid-2011...

See post #17930. IMAGE REMOVED...OPEN HOUSE.

Either I have swiss cheese holes in my optical chord, or I am SURE that your latest post appeared on my screen well after Noyade's. I don't know how, but I was looking at the time labels of my post and Noyade's after he hit me, and I am positive that yours was not there at the time.

Go figure out. Maybe I need my cabbage fixed.

Graeme: I have seen that one yesterday night and I am not gonna dig it up again. Someone else.

Worst case of Biplane Fatigue I've ever seen. Tragic.

You're right it's not a parasol.

I'm getting most of these from my "Big Book of Biplanes". Even posting them I find they're annoyingly similar.
Tell you what, it's late here but early there. I'm happy to retract my challenge and make it Open House and I promise to move on from biplanes...whatdoyasay?!
