Not a Panther mate.

Hope I'm not making you Furyious?

Noyade 14th Nov 2010 11:28

Because I would hate to think I'm making you Furyious...

Capot 14th Nov 2010 11:40

North American FJ-2/-3 Fury


If correct, open house.....

Noyade 14th Nov 2010 11:43


North American FJ-2/-3 Fury
I'll accept that!

Open House.

evansb 14th Nov 2010 16:20

I think the straight-winged FJ-1 Fury cockpit was the challenge, not the Navalized Sabre FJ-2/3 Fury. Two different aircraft.


Here is the next mystery cockpit:

Kerling-Approsh KG 14th Nov 2010 16:35

Terrafugia?

evansb 14th Nov 2010 16:54

Correct:ok: Transforms from aircraft to automobile in around 30 seconds. You have control.

FYI Here is a cockpit photo of a North American FJ-1 Fury taken at the Pensacola Florida museum.

Kerling-Approsh KG 16th Nov 2010 06:11

evansb has it... A great little aeroplane...

evansb 16th Nov 2010 12:50

Thanks. Speaking of little aeroplanes, here is the next challenge:
http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r.../WCP101116.jpg

MReyn24050 16th Nov 2010 14:43

An aircraft built and designed by Orin Welch, the Welch OW4 or OW5 Model - Three place high wing monoplane perhaps?

evansb 16th Nov 2010 15:11

Correct.:ok: Possibly the OW-5 or -9, as the type is not specified on the photo. You have control.

MReyn24050 16th Nov 2010 23:24

Thanks Bri. I understand that the Aeronca had considerable influence on the "Welch" design.
Here is the next one:-

Polikarpov I-6

MReyn24050 17th Nov 2010 15:39

sycamore. not the Polikarpov I-6 I am sorry to say.

sycamore 17th Nov 2010 16:22

Something German perhaps, He-51 ?

MReyn24050 17th Nov 2010 19:43

It is a German aircraft but not the He-51.

sycamore 17th Nov 2010 20:08

How about a Bu. Jungmeister,or a Fieseler Fi 2 Tiger..?

MReyn24050 17th Nov 2010 23:04

Sorry sycamore. Neither the Bu. Jungmeister nor a Fieseler Fi 2 Tiger.

evansb 18th Nov 2010 18:26

Just one built ?

AVA AF 1 ?

MReyn24050 18th Nov 2010 23:40

Sorry Bri. Not the AVA AF 1. A large number of these aircraft were built and saw service.

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 09:32


A large number of these aircraft were built and saw service.

It is a German aircraft
Hi Mel. Looks like struts and stuff outside the panel so maybe a biplane or parasol?

So, rapid firing...and not on your list...

Arado 66
Gotha 145
Heinkel 46
Heinkel 60
Henschel 123
Henschel 126.

MReyn24050 20th Nov 2010 10:02

Graeme :)

So which one are you going for?

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:06


So which one are you going for?
The correct one please! :)

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:13

But if it is against "What Cockpit?" etiquette, I will list them individually one post after the other..for your appraisal.

I would hate to break the etiquette.

:)

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:24

Arado 66.....maybe? (can find no images on the internet.)

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:26

There is of course the popular Gotha 145, but again I can find no internet pictures.

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:30

It just occurred to me that it could be marine? Heinkel 60?

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:32

A plane dear to my heart as I made an Airfix model of it many, many years ago, the Henschel 123?

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 10:34

Just thought of another parasol, the Henschel 126?

MReyn24050 20th Nov 2010 11:12


Arado 66.....maybe? (can find no images on the internet.)
Graeme.
You have it it is indeed the Arado 66C:ok: :D. Got to make you work for it. :):)

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...mel/ar66-8.jpg
The Ar 66C found an entirely unexpected combat role late in the Second World War. The Russians had been carrying out night-time nuisance raids using the Polikarpov U-2 biplane. This inspired the Germans to form Night-harassing squadrons (Störkampfstaffeln), before in October 1943 a larger scale effort was put in place with the creation of the Night Ground Attack Groups (Nachtschlacht Gruppen). Around 2,000 Arado Ar 66Cs were modified to carry 4lb and 8lb anti-personnel bombs, and served with most of the sixteen squadrons within the new groups, in particular with NSGr 2, 3 and 5 over the Soviet Union, NSGr 8 in Finland and NSGr 12 in Latvia.

You have control

Noyade 20th Nov 2010 19:23

Thanks Mel.

I'll try and do a better job with this one...

MReyn24050 21st Nov 2010 12:33

Looks interesting Graeme.
The diagram on the panel for the landing gear position indicator would suggest a swept wing aircraft with possible cheek intakes. The English markings and grey panel suggest a western aircraft about mid 1950s.
Mel

sycamore 21st Nov 2010 16:50

Is it a test aircraft `modified from an earlier model ? British or USA ?

evansb 21st Nov 2010 18:30

HAL Ha-24 Marut ?

Noyade 21st Nov 2010 20:08

Mel.............Swept wing but no cheeks. Late fifties.
Sycamore....Built to fill an order and based on an earlier design. American.
Bri..............Sorry mate.

sycamore 21st Nov 2010 21:20

Republic XF-84H Thunderscreech..?

Noyade 21st Nov 2010 23:08


Republic XF-84H Thunderscreech..?
No mate, sorry.

This jets speed was limited by the melting temperature of plexiglass (According to the article).

The "T" lever, above the landing gear indicator, which Mel pointed out, retracted the ventral fins in an emergency...

That should help, but I gotta leave for work shortly.

MReyn24050 21st Nov 2010 23:37

Vought XF8U-3 Crusader III perhaps?
