Taking advantage of the open house, here's an intake;

[Noyade]

G'day Karlark.

intake;

Jet mate? Can't work out that polished(?) surface at the lower half of the photo. Thought it might be rain water, but a jet intake wouldn't be that close to the ground, would it? Magnified, there looks to be a bolt at bottom left?

Much appreciate a clue (or two!) for a lazy Sunday morning...at your discretion of course.

[Karlark]

Hello again Noyade,

I haven't been able to monitor close today, but I'm in now.

The intake is for a piston engine. The shiny is the underside of the wing. It's the same on the other wing as well. It does look as though they're Polish(ed).

[Noyade]

The shiny is the underside of the wing

So we're upside down? Big airscoop? Mustang?

[Karlark]

Well, not upside down, just shiny.
Here's a better view;

It's been OH too long!!

There is something in memory about this, but I can’t get at it.
Possibly a whiff of French perfume or maybe even Swiss chocolate?

[MReyn24050]

Not a whiff of French perfume or even Swiss chocolate but possibly a whiff of a Hot Dog. The aircraft is I believe the Northrop JB-1 from the USA.

[SincoTC]

Sorry SP, none of those delicate fragrancies, but maybe hot-dog as Mel points out .

Hello Mel , It takes something pretty special/obscure to stop you in your tracks and it seems this isn't it!!

It is indeed the Northrop JB-1



The guy at the back is checking to see if the onions are ready!!

MReyn24050 has control
