How about the Hamilcar?

682al 21st Jan 2006 18:21

Gotha, Hamilcar, Hotspur....? All too easy!
Bert gets it right again with the Slingsby Hengist. Another obscure wartime British type, this time an assault glider with a capacity for eighteen troops.

That was instructive. Drove me mental. Very good archive you have access to 682.

It took me 4 shots - so somebody else deserves a go. BMG.

Another Tri-motor! Fokker F7b perhaps?

cringe 23rd Jan 2006 09:36

Sorry, not a Fokker.

Junkers AB Flygindustri K30 - perchance?

Not a Junkers product either.

Process of elimination here. Short Calcutta?

foxmoth 23rd Jan 2006 10:07

Mr Fords attempt?

cringe 23rd Jan 2006 10:08

Neither a Short nor a Ford.

Stinson Trimotor?

cringe 23rd Jan 2006 10:40

No, not a Stinson. Wrong countries so far.

JDK 23rd Jan 2006 11:08

Well it isn't a 'Boeing Tri-Motor'...

But see here (down the page) http://www.cargolaw.com/2005nightmare_tri-motor.html

I KNOW I'm going to be kicking myself...

European or N. American design?

cringe 23rd Jan 2006 12:40

European design.

Armstrong Whitworth Argosy.

cringe 23rd Jan 2006 13:03

Didn't the AW Argosy have four engines? This one is not British. There were two design versions of the type.
