Heikkis' Silhouette Challenge

[Noyade]

I made the silhouette from an illustration from what I've now dubbed "The Book of Morten".

Maybe catch Graeme's before he goes to bed, but I have good reason to believe that this is a Junkers S36 !!

Better be OH if he confirms, as I will be too busy in the workshop this afternoon to put another one up

[Noyade]

Junkers S36

Well done Trevor, it is indeed the Junkers.

The workshop demands his attention = open house.

To keep things moving try this easy one. Manufacture and designation required:-

[sabredog]

Fokker YO-27?

[MReyn24050]

That is the one.


You have control

[sabredog]

The next;

[MReyn24050]

Interesting aircraft. It look as as though it is pretending to be something else.

Not a radial and with fixed undercarriage. Some type of racer perhaps and possibly French.

[Noyade]

I like your Fokker Mel. I had a quick look late last night and thought it was Russian!

The one above (I think I posted this a long time ago?) is the Max Plan PF.204?

[sabredog]

Correct. The Max Plan PF.204.
YHC.

[Noyade]

Thanks Terry,

AQ style...

[MReyn24050]

Judging by the panel on the side of the engine cowling it is from Tommy Sopwith's stable. The F.1 Camel perhaps?

[Noyade]

Welcome back Mel.

Indeed it is mate, the Sopwith Camel. A new one for your list.

[MReyn24050]

Thanks Graeme. Here is the next. Manufacturer and name required.

[Noyade]

Immediate thought was the Nanchang CJ-6.

So therefore.......from the USA?

[MReyn24050]

You are nearly there it is from NAMC.

[Noyade]

NAMC.

I'm thinking that would be Japanese? A Japanese version of the Yak/Nanchang?

I keep seeing the name Haiyan - but I think that's Chinese.

[MReyn24050]

Sorry Graeme I was being too pedantic. You had it the first time it . The photograph was captioned the NAMC (Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company) Haiyan.
NAMC decided in 1985 to undertake a conversion of the CJ-6 basic trainer to produce a multi-purpose agricultural and forestry aircraft. The prototype Haiyan A flew 17 august 1985.

From that shot of the aircraft it could have been either.

You have control

[Noyade]

Thanks mate. There is an American aircraft on Aerofiles (I forget the manufacturer) with a designation 225, (I think) which is what I thought it may have been.

Let me know if the cropping is excessive....

[MReyn24050]

No cropping is fine. This one is also American I think.
