'Artnoon David,

Issa dark bit extreme lower right a wing?

Indeed it is!

[Lightning Mate]

Bugger!

Then I don't get the bit on the left.

[SincoTC]

That's also a part of the wing!

Looks a bit like a CF34 or ALF502 turbofan?

[MReyn24050]

The engine looks a bit like the Kolesov RD-36-51 as fitted to the Tu 144

[SincoTC]

Good evening Mel,

You're spot on as usual !!

It is one of the four Kolesov RD-36-51 afterburning turbojets that powered the Tupolev Tu-144.

You have control

Thanks Trevor. Here is the next one:-

Good morning Mel,

I think that's a Viper tailpipe on the HP-115 (now at Yeovilton FAA Museum and well worth a visit)

[MReyn24050]

Hi Trevor. That is the one, I know the Museum well I used to work in Gazelle House just across the road from the museum.
Your control.

Thanks Mel,

Best to visit Yeovilton on one of their Cobham Hall "open house" days, very interesting additional things to see!

here's the next challenge!

Yes that is when they open up their refurbishment hangar I believe. I see your latest one Trevor is a Rotary aircraft for a change.

[SincoTC]

Good evening Mel,

Cobham Hall is officially known as their "Reserve Collection", but it did look like they were doing restoration work in there when I last visited.

Not many about today! Of course, you're correct about my latest being a helicopter!

[MReyn24050]

Well Trevor seeing as nobody else has bitten I will say your challenge is the Agusta A129 Mangusta.

[SincoTC]

Hi Mel,

A bite from a Mongoose can be quite nasty!!

You're absolutely right, it is the Agusta A129 Mangusta powered by two Rolls-Royce Gem 2-1004D turboshafts (license built by Piaggio); it was the first Attack helicopter built in Western Europe

You have control

[MReyn24050]

Thanks Trevor. Here is a nice easy one:-

Evening Mel.

Mikoyan-Gurevich I-270?

[MReyn24050]

HI Graeme
You have it the Mikoyan-Gurevich I-270

Your control.

[Noyade]

Thanks Mel. Having trouble trying to be original, so how about a cross-section at the tailpipes?
