Heikkis' Silhouette Challenge

[SincoTC]

Designed for speed?

Well yes; but only inasmuch as a fighter doesn't want to be a slow-coach, as you well know! It toted a pair of 7.7mm Vickers MG

[Noyade]

Looks like the Romanian IAR.14 fighter Trevor?
If it is, Open House. Early start tomorrow. Know the feeling mate?

[Lightning Mate]

I feel a rude Aussie joke coming on...............

[SincoTC]

Good evening and goodnight Graeme !

It is indeed the Romanian IAR.14 Fighter, fitted with a license built Lorraine-Dietrich 12 Eb, 12-cylinder W-form watercooled in-line 340 kW (450 hp)

I.A.R. 14 - fighter

Noyade has requested an Open House Sleep well

[skytrain10]

Neither of those guys

[Ridge Runner]

An AOP machine, Ken????

Edit: those u/c struts seem to come up the fuselage side a long way, Ken. Is that correct? And are those small windows on top of the cabin, hence the AOP question?

[skytrain10]

Hi Martin.
Not an AOP machine mate.
Yes the struts do come up the fuselage sides a fair way.
Those are windows on top behind the windscreen.

[Ridge Runner]

And gull-winged? of sorts?
