Evening Reg....your's is an interesting looking machine. Trying to work out what the lump is under the fuselage....American?

[RegDep]

Skytrain, yes, American.

Sorry for my slow, just grilling Irish rack of lamb…..

[irishair2001]

RegDep ,you mean a rack of Irish Lamb lol

[RegDep]

Irishair, my first language is not English (nor Irish), but one of my first preferences is Irish lamb. I'll leave the details to the experts . Whichever way, the outcome was perfect. Need to go back for seconds….

Curtiss Wright CW-22/ SNC Falcon?

[RegDep]

Skwinty, correct.

I have it as Curtiss-Wright CW-22 but it is the same, I believe.

Over to you skwinty!

Edit: I see you edited it so there you go!

[skwinty]

Thanks RegDep,
Try this one, should be easy.

[skytrain10]

Evening skwinty....the Vultee XP-54.....?

[SincoTC]

Evening skwinty,

I do believe that's a Vultee XP-54 "Swoose Goose"

Just got in and going to get something to eat now, so Open House please if correct.

Edit: Snap!! well done Ken (I shouldn't have stopped to ask for the OH)!! At least both answers came AFTER the Challenge post

[skwinty]

Hi SincoTC and skytrain.

skytrain has control.

[skytrain10]

Thanks skwinty...and well done Trevor.. just pipped you at the post

Here's the next challenge:

[SincoTC]

Is it a Robin Alpha ?? Not sure which one as there seems to be a lot of them! There's a similar angle shot in Wiki of an HR200/100

The horizontal tail looks about right, but I haven't found one with that aerial wire!

Will have to ask for an Open House if it is please, as I'm off to bed soon for a 5am start tomorrow!

Good to see you're light on again Reg
