Another day another clue.

J Clarkson would call the constructors a bunch of cheese eating surrender monkeys.

Purely from the clues, sounds like a Bleriot 127 ?????

aviate1138 10th Feb 2010 15:55

one11, you have the helm/control/stick. A Bleriot 127/2 Well done!

What a beast......

You have it Evansb - the Dee Howard rework of the WW2 Ventura included this upgraded cockpit.

evansb 11th Feb 2010 13:46

Must be one of those two seat, armoured Air Tractor AT6xx that DEA wishfully thinks will stem the flow of cocaine.

Sorry, not an Air Tractor AT6, nor is it Columbia. The mystery aircraft is now available in an ethanol fuel version, although the version pictured burns avgas.

asw28-866 14th Feb 2010 03:26

biggest user of ethanol is Brazil, so Embraer Ipanema?

866

evansb 14th Feb 2010 03:36

866 is correct. The Embraer EMB-201 Ipanema. First flown in 1970, over 1,000 have been produced in several versions. In this case, Ipanema refers to a large farm/coffee plantation district, not the beach in Rio. You have control.

asw28-866 14th Feb 2010 09:04

sorry chaps, nothing to hand so open house

one11 14th Feb 2010 15:30

Another from way back....

thats not a real aeroplane you have just drawn that!!!!!

If it is then how about a de Havilland DH91 albatross

one11 14th Feb 2010 21:45

It is , or was, real . Not the Albatross but ..........

leader3 14th Feb 2010 21:53

a de Havilland DH86A Dryad.

one11 15th Feb 2010 08:27

Yes a DH.86A, or as the Players Cigarette card from which it was sourced describes it "Qantas Empire Airways . Bridge of Commonwealth Class Airliner".

Leader3, You have control.

leader3 15th Feb 2010 14:51

this one has been here before but some time ago
it should be very easy.

NutherA2 15th Feb 2010 20:36

Is that what someone's done to a Gnat's rear cockpit to civilise it?
