Planegill's challenge
 

Beriev Be-30 perhaps?

Attention ppruner's, My cockpit photo on thread #1482 is a Beriev Be-32K, All other variants are fair game to post.

Planegill's challenge
 

As Bri rightly states the Beriev Be-32KM was a derivative of the Beriev Be-30, however it had a different windscreen layout.

Be-30
Planegill's challenge has a similar windscreen layout to the Be-30, hence my response but then I have been wrong many times before :)
Mel

Mel is correct, it is the Beriev Be-30.
With all due respect, the previous thread at #1482 was incorrectly identified. It is not the Be-32. It is the prototype Beriev A-40 Albatross. You can see it has a bigger pedestal and a generally wider cockpit. The Be-32 has the same cockpit window arrangement as the Be-30. (That would be a major modification to make to an aircraft.) I can't find any photos which show this clearly, although you can see in this one that there is a centreline window.

Here is another A-40 cockpit photo. I don't know if this was an updated version or the second prototype. I downloaded this photo, but can vouch it is the same as the aircraft I inspected and photographed at AirExpo 92 in Auckland. (Unfortunately I can't find my photos at the moment.)

Thanks Planegill, and thanks for your input regarding the Beriev Be-32K. I know that the photograph Bri published at Post #1482 is also identified as the Be-32K on a well known website. The following photograph is of a Be-32k which shows the central windscreen clearly.

However on the Beriev website they have a three view drawing showing the Be-32KM which has a different windscreen layout. See link:-

Whether this aircraft was built I do not know.
Next challenge to follow soon.

Mel

Can't be a P38, that must have been done before?

Agaricus bisporus
 

No this one is not the P38, that has definitely been done before.
Mel

Going with the allied countries, twin engine, narrow fuselage theme- HP Hampden?

Mel's Challenge
 

kitbag, you are correct going with the Allied Countries but this one was not a HP Hampden.
Mel

Ah well, 1 out of 4 can't be bad :}

Something makes me think it is French, how about LeO 451?

Mel's Challenge.
 

Time to go out on that limb again ......... Petlyakov Pe-2, Pe-3 ???? Keith.

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry for the delay, trying to find the answer to the latest Avia quiz chalenge. However, kitbag, this one was not a French aircraft and norwich, not a Petlyakov aircraft either.

Mel's Challenge.
 

Ok what about Tupolev TU - 2 ???? Keith.

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry Keith this one was not from Tupolev. Mel

OK, time for a SWAG: Hughes XF-11??

Just to fill another box ... Ilyushin IL 4 ???? Keith.

Mel's Challenge
 

Twochai. This aircraft was not from the USA. Keith is in the right part of the world but I am afraid to say it was not from Ilyushin. At this stage in the proceedings I should add this was a rare bird.
Mel

Mel's Challenge
 

I am a little surprised this one has lasted so long. Some 700 viewing since original posting.
To recap, this aircraft is an aircraft that was built in the Soviet Union but as stated earlier it was a rarity.
Mel

To continue trawling the entire USSR fleet !! I will try the Polikarpov VIT-1
Keith ?

Mel's Challenge
 

Not a Polikarpov aircraft. This aircraft did not enter service. You are correct in that this aircraft was a twin.
Mel

It's Gotta Be Something Cool!
 

Just a shot,but is this from the Mig Family?

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry Lobo3 but this one was not a Mig either.
Mel

Well Then I's Stumped!
 

This thing is ringing all kinds of Bells,I'll sit and think on it for a bit,something has to give?:ugh:

Mel's Challenge.
 

I am running out of everything as well? I am going to suggest this, thinking it's wrong already ....
Vladimar Yermolov / Bartini designed DB 240? Keith ?

Desperation No 1 .... Antonov / Tupolev ANT 29.

Desperation No 2. Antonov / Tupolev ANT 46.

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry keith, not the Vladimar Yermolov / Bartini designed DB 240. To recap the aircraft was of soviet design but did not come from the following stables:
MiG
Polikarpov
Petlyakov
Tupolev
Antonov
Ilyushin
It was a twin engined experimental aircraft of unusual design.
Mel

Clutching at straws again .... Sukhoy SU - 12 ?????

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry Keith, this one was not a Sukhoy SU - 12 or a Spotter & Reconnaissance Aircraft it was designed as a bomber.
Mel

Obviously nobody reads `Aeroplane` any more ; Belyaev DB-LK.....
help yourselves....Syc.

Mel's Challenge
 

sycamore
As you say it would appear that not many read the Aeroplane these days, I thought when I put this one up it would be spotted immediately. It is indeed the Belyaev DB-LK.:ok::D, which was the subject of a recent article in the "Aeroplane".

Do I take it that you are declaring "Open House", if so after all the effort norwich put in I suggest he takes up the challenge.
Mel

Well done Sycamore, and well done Mel ! That was one megga challange !
I hope this is "open house" as I am going to post a realy easy one, and then go to bed ! So here goes .....

http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/i...kpits/cop8.jpg

Airship of some sort. I mean dirigble (sp).

The Goodyear blimp, I'd say. Circa late 1980s or 1990s. I believe it has a glass cockpit now.

Glenn

Ozbeowulf has it, It's said to be Goodyear Blimp N1A "Mayflower" photo of 1971.
Difficult to track down as Goodyear seem to use the same registration and names for different craft ! Over to you Glenn.

Thanks, Keith...

When I confirmed my initial guesstimate, I found a 1989 photo. Even 18 years later, you can't mistake that big wood-rimmed pitch trimmer!

Here's a challenge from the big bird end of the ramp....

Ginger-beers panel on Concorde ?
