Not the Air Horse Doug - interesting thought though.
It is an airship nacluv, but not the Norge...

I was fooled by stumbling upon that very same picture on here!

But it still looks like a Maybach, so I'll opt for a Zeppelin.

Wow! Ouch! Hmmm....?

However, I got it from a source with illustrations by John Batchelor, and I agree with your Zeppelin answer mate.

Your control nacluv!

Thanks, Noyade! I knew I was on the right lines with an airship gondola.

I pity the poor attendant engineer in your picture - having to stay in close proximity to one of those things for hours!

Have a go at this 'outie'...

Yes, clever (?) cropping, but no, not an airliner.

A swift edit, Sir! Yes indeed, half of the 'four burning' on a B36.

OH has been declared.

I would contribute but I'm out of photos of intake manifolds and fuel injectors...perhaps a nice shot of a lock-nut would do?
