Yes, Airspeed Ferry it is/was.
VX275 - have you checked the Image Posting on PPRuNe thread in the "Sticky" section at the head of this History & Nostalgia thread ? Meanwhile, as you say, OPEN HOUSE. |
one11 thanks for that, I supose I'll have to give it a try.
I hope no one will accuse me of cheating, as my answer was a product of pure deduction. With all those windows it had to be an ugly aeroplane and the shape of the cockpit ones just screamed 'Ferry'. BTW the Ferry is so ugly I rather like it, its that mix of inverted and upright engines I like and have often wondered if a replica would be possible. |
An RC model of the Airspeed Ferry was built. Here is the next "What Cockpit?":

Early Cessna 337/O-2?
|
Broussard???
|
Not a Cessna, nor a Broussard. It is a twin-engine pusher though. The company originally made aeroengines, and branched into airframes in the early 1930s.
|
Twin engined pusher ........Piaggio P.136 maybe
|
Sorry, not Italian, French, nor American.
|
Praga E.211 looks possible..........

Global Express/Challenger?
|
No, but as I am going to offline for some hours now and you have named others from its family, I'll accept these - its actually a CRJ 200. You have control.

Ilyushin Il-62?

Whatever it is I hope someone will explain that weird control column?

Next challenge
Thank You, Ridge Runner. Am I right in assuming that the smaller yoke is the nose wheel steering tiller on that plane by the way? Here is the next picture to consider: http://i710.photobucket.com/albums/w...114/171109.jpg Tu.114

Possibly a Convair 580 ?
