Heikkis' Silhouette Challenge

[Ridge Runner]

the HAL Agri plane prototype

A nice one, Karlark!!

[evansb]

Thanks Terrence. Dive-bombing in a glider sounds like a one-way trip.

Also, that HAL Agri-plane seems to have been inspired from the Partenavia Aeroscooter.

Here is the next challenge:

[skytrain10]

Evening Brian, Grumman F7F-3N Tigercat?

Edit, not around this evening so if correct will have to be Open House.

[Ridge Runner]

I'll second that, mate!

[evansb]

skytrain10 is correct. The quick Grumman F7F. As requested, it is

OPEN HOUSE.

[Karlark]

One for the open house;

[SincoTC]

One for the open house...

Good man , dunno where they all were this side of the pond yesterday, 'fraid I was too busy to look in!

Can't stop now as gotte get ready for an early start to my day , but I'll ask this now and maybe catch you before bed! Is this one from you're side of the pond??

BTW, there'e an open cockpit available now

[Karlark]

Yes TC, this side of the pond, only no dihedral compared to the Tigercat.

[SincoTC]

Morning Karl,

Hurried look at lunch break!

Three-bladed props, radio mast, is it a Curtiss Y1A-18 or possibly the later production A-18 Shrike II ??

[Karlark]

Afternoon TC,

Yes, it is the Curtiss A-18 Shrike .





Your control Trevor.

[SincoTC]

Thanks Karl,

Sorry for the delay guys (I know you're out there somewhere), I've been in a meeting since lunchtime !!

It'll have to be an Open House now, as I'll be busy for the rest of the afternoon. If no one takes it I'll put one up later when I get home!

[Ridge Runner]

I'd love too but I can't guarantee that I can monitor over the weekend. Sorry!

[SincoTC]

Hi Martin,

No need to apologise mate, I know/think you're still in faraway places and time-zones

[SincoTC]

Just going home, will be back to monitor in about an hour:

[Karlark]

Martin MB-1/MB-2/NBS-1 bomber?

[SincoTC]

Good afternoon Minnesota!

It looks like it's turning out to be the Karlark and TC show doesn't it !

Martin MB-1/MB-2/NBS-1 bomber?

I thought the MB-1 had splayed interplane-struts (but I could be wrong though), but the other two are identical in silhouette, I think because of this, it ought to go on Mel's list as the Martin MB-2/NBS-1



Karlark has control

[Karlark]

Thanks & Evening Minehead!

Just multi-tasking here at work... one more before the buzzer:



You are correct Trevor, I should have left the MB-1 out of the carpet-bombing of answers.

[Noyade]

G'day gents.

A Kinner product mate?

Kinner R-5?
Kinner-P?

I Kinner make up my mind!

[SincoTC]

I'd have a Pee if I were you Sportster, I think that's a good call mate, but I may be wrong !!

[Karlark]

Morning Noyade!

I have it as the Kinner R-5 Playboy. So it is kind of both an R & P

Still at work. The buzzer must 'ave broke.



Your control Graeme
