Looks more like the Pup to me - but I am probably wrong:8

Both wrong!

It's the Snipe!
And should this be confirmed after I've gone bo-boes, please someone else have a go. |

Ilynshin 14. In fact it is Avia AV-14t of the Czech Air Force.
This is the bird I think. http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...AviaAv-14T.jpg |
Correct:ok:
|
Thanks forget. Staying with large multi-engined aircraft I am sure this will be no problem. Sorry the quality is not that good.

A wild guess before I head out the door to earn a crust......
An FW 200 Kondor perhaps? |
Not the FW 200. This aircraft was designed late 1930s.
|
He 116 ?
Mel, are we right in thinking German ? Clint. |
Clint
Sorry for the delay, guests for the evening. No, not the He 116. Not German but right side of the Channel/North Sea. Mel |
How about a Bloch MB-161 ?
|
cringe.
Well done you are again correct. At first I was going to say no and that it was the SE. 161 "Languedoc", but it appears that the aircraft was originally the Bloch MB-161. I find that through the merger of the airline companies Blériot and Bloch, the national company SNCASE (Societé Nationale de Constructions Aéronautiques du Sud-Est) was founded in 1939 and Project Bloch 161 was continued. The successful flight test took place by the end of 1939 and brought an order of over 40 machines from the airline company Air France. Delivery lasted for seven years since World War II provided that the series production first begin in 1946. This was primarily due to the successful stalling technique of the French manufacturers who wanted to prevent the 20 machines from being delivered from Germany in 1942. The aircraft orginally developed in Bordeaux was transported to Cannes which was located in France's unoccupied Free Zone in 1942. Under the management of German Lufthansa engineers, tests were made with the aircraft until the beginning of 1943. Marc Hurel, the Technical Director of SNCASO, attempted unsuccessfully to bring the aircraft to North Africa in order to ensure its safety. The improved successor version was first tested after the liberation of France on September 17, 1945. Series production began in 1946. In May of the same year, the model became known as the SE. 161 "Languedoc" by Air France for its scheduled service. You have control Mel |
Thanks, Mel. I wasn't entirely sure, although aware of the variants. Next challenge:

A Martin 130 Clipper?
|
Nope, sorry. It isn't American.
|
what cockpit
Let's try:
French built S.E. something Armagnac ? SE 2010-Armagnac |
The control columns seem wierd, so I'll change tack and go for a helicopter. Seems to have 4 engines. How about the Mil Mi-12?
|
Well done mikl, it was indeed the Sud-Est SE 2010 Armagnac. Late 1940s French airliner; only 8 were built.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...t_Armagnac.jpg Your go, mikl. |
what cockpit
Thanks but I'd better to close my big mouth, cause I have nothing ready right now.
|
No problem mikl. To keep the thread rolling I have another that I am sure will cause no problems to the experts. I should add that only two aircraft were built.

Junkers 61 (E2 ?)
|
Sorry Mike, Bert has it. Although not quite 100% correct as it was a photograph of the E-1 cockpit.:)
http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...kersJUEF61.jpg Two Ju EF 61s, high-altitude development aircraft, were built E-1 (Works No 4931) and E-2 (Works No 4932) which first flew on 4th march and 18th December 1937 respectively. The E-1 crashed on the 19th September 1937 from 3,500 metres altitude. The aircraft had two DB 600 engines and carried a single fixed MG 15 as defensive armament. E-2 crashed shortly after its first flight and was completely destroyed. Seven Ju EF 61s were planned to test the type’s suitability as a high-altitude bomber with 5,000 km range. However work was switched to develop the JU 86 as a high-altitude aircraft in long distance reconnaissance and heavy –bomber versions. You have control Bert |
Yes, there was a bit of a question mark for me about which one it was so I guessed/deduced wrongly. The E2 didn't even last as long as the E1 and I'm not really surprised - I'd guess it was a landing accident with visibility like that.
You're all too fancy for me - so here's a picture of the camper van I've been building - sorry it's a bit cramped. http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f8...orneycroft.jpg BTW, if anyone can describe how the control "things" worked in the Armagnac I would be delighted to hear - they look like they've been removed from a gym. |
Smart van Bert, what is it ?
Quick one from me. Clint. http://www.btinternet.com/~simon.gur...pit-9small.JPG |
Clint
Twin engine Rotary wing ? Yet single seat up front! |
Tis Rotary.

Mil Mi-1.......

682al.
Too easy. Over to you. C. |
...........And the camper van ?.
|
Bert.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to jump the gun. I thought your camper van was some sort of Winniebago ! C. |
Not a Winnebago

Bert, your camper van reminds me of a Waco Hadrian glider? ...er, no disrespect, 'course. :oh: |
Looks a bit like the original Link Trainer:)
|
Nope, note the tandem layout...
|
Prototype twin Link Trainer? :O

Luton Major I would say.
G Steve Wittman's Tailwind is side by side and single stick. W |
I will go for an early Taylorcraft. Possibly of the L2 or other model such as Model A.In fact it also could be an Aeronca C3
|
Well done Wunper, it's your turn. :)
