HP42 ? (possibly but not really sure - filler)

Sorry, Not the HP.42. This aircraft was several years later than the Heracles.

The Short "Shetland".

MReyn24050 5th Oct 2006 21:26

evansb. It is the right answer, it is indeed the Short "Shetland".:D :ok:
You have control.

Yak 50? .......

evansb 6th Oct 2006 14:49

Sorry, not a YAK-50.

MReyn24050 7th Oct 2006 14:21

North American Aviation X-15 perhaps?

evansb 7th Oct 2006 14:27

Not the X-15. Getting warm.

Mel, You ARE correct. It is a North American X-15. :ok: I feared this would happen one day, and it has. My source for the photo was the #%&@= archives, and it appears they have misidentified the cockpit. They placed it under the #%&@= file and prior to posting, I did not cross-reference it to any other #%&@= cockpit photo. Sorry:{ . This one is a wash, especially as the X-15 has
been done before. I'll be e-mailing the offending archive a missle ASAP. Sorry again for wasting everyone's time. You have control.

I did not think this would last this long. Clue is that this multi-purpose aircraft first flew early 1990s.

Is it the Edgeley Optica?

I'll answer my own question - it's not! Just Googled to see if I spelt 'Edgeley' right and realised the layout is wrong and the optica dates from the 80s. I didn't realise it was that long ago -must be getting old...

jabberwok 8th Oct 2006 18:05

Let's start the ball rolling with a wild guess then. Dornier?

MReyn24050 8th Oct 2006 18:33

oncemorealoft.

As you rightly say it is not the Edgeley Optica.

jabberwok

This one was not by Dornier. However you were right in it not being from the UK or the USA.

MReyn24050 8th Oct 2006 22:28

PZL Wilga ?

MReyn24050 10th Oct 2006 10:19

paulc
Not the PZL Wilga, however it was designed to fulfill a similar role. To date this aircraft has not been a success.

evansb 10th Oct 2006 14:12

Yakovlev Yak-112.

MReyn24050 10th Oct 2006 15:02

evansb.
You have it, it is the YAK 112:ok:
You have control
