Nice.

Just about to take a stab with the Douglas Skywarrior, but this looked too big and the nacelle didn't fit...

Sabredog is correct. The Convair 990 Coronado. A beautiful airliner. You have control.

Thanks Trevor. Here is the next one:-



Not after the aircraft type but the engine type. What aircraft it is used in would be a bonus.

Unexpected work call so not as much time as hoped for!

Just off between showers for a walk; so a quick guess, it looks rather like a Lyulka AL-21F-3 in a SU-22 Fitter ??

Trevor.
I will accept that, it is in fact the AL-31F as fitted to the Sukhoi Su-27. You have control.

Thank you Mel,

I wasn't too sure of the exact model and it seems there are lots of minor detail differences and that was the nearest I found!

Try this one

Evening.

The exhaust belongs to the Convair Pogo...maybe?
