Name that Flying Machine

[Zaxis]

Yes, pretty cool design but his follow up was just as good ... the CC02

it was tempting to put this up as the next challenge but I offer this instead...

[Noyade]

The CCO2 looks very nice!
What's still under construction (and a little bruised) looks to be the Canadian Gregor FDB-1?

[Asturias56]

cool down the posting guys - the 24 hour rule came in due to "over enthusiasm"

[Zaxis]

Noyade has it. I was hoping an obscure Canadian aircraft would be more of a challenge.... seems not.
Noyade has control.

[Noyade]

I don't think the Gregor is as obscure as you may think - but thanks.
Must be time for Open House.
Cheers.

A little more from Robinson's article...

[Asturias56]

Something fairly obscure............

[Ombinda]

Scaled Composites Triumph?

[Noyade]

Sud-Ouest SO 8000 Narval?

[Asturias56]

Gow - a wing tip and he's got it!

Yes the Narval.....

[Noyade]

Cheers A56.
Nothing at hand - Open House.

[BEagle]

Here you go.....

[dixi188]

Mig 21 perhaps?

[Zaxis]

Myasishchev m-50?

[BEagle]

Yes, the Myasishchev M-50 supersonic bomber prototype. Only one ever flew....

Zaxis, you have control!

[Zaxis]

The M-50 really was a BIG Mig 21 wasn't it?


Next challenge

[Asturias56]

French?

[Zaxis]

Non !

[Asturias56]

Is it in service with the French military?

[Zaxis]

oui !

[Noyade]

I read years ago in Francillion's book on the Vietnam air war the French flew Oscars and a Rufe and acquired a few other Japanese aircraft. Looks too small for Topsy - but wiki says they did use Hickory.
