Junkers G.38. mate

Edit: Er, no its not! .... Me323??

You sure about that Martin?

Whilst we wait for Bri to wake up, wossa mark of the Lightnings?

Well, LM, ain't that classy! :)

...did Burnelli also made single boom aircraft?

Nice one!!!!!

Ain't it just HP.

Many thanks RR. :)

The challenge, apart from the wing planform, looks more like the Ju 322 Mammut.

F1s? David?

Not F3s mate.

Edit for your edit - yes. F1As to be precise.

I only scrutinised the fin-tips later!

Not that I can find.

Yep same here...
Then it must be along the lines of your Mammut suggestion... or Russian?

Could it be a Tupolev/ANT?

I'm still trying to work out whether it is powered or not.

My money is on powered (tail boom angle, jagged nose profile = engines?)

I was looking at the ANT-20 before (wiki similar aircraft links): too many engines imho, nose too long, even if, if one takes the perspective into account...

I'd go for Me322/323 but there is no sign of fuselage ahead of the wing!

I just can't buy those mate. :\

Since Lethbridge is seven hours behind us, it is going to be a long wait, so I'll check out for now.

stepping back... nice XTB2F-1 by the way! Clearly a Tracker predecessor!

RR

Xtb2F lumps: - drop tanks on my drawing, but pylons look capable of bombs and torpedos etc.:\

The challenge is almost certainly the Ju322, which had no forward fuselage to speak of with the cockpit sitting on top.

the more I look at the drawing the less convinced I become, not enough aspect ratio, or was there an extended span version.?:confused:

LM and Buttrick are correct. It is the Junkers Ju-322 Mummut. :ok: LM has control.

Good grief - so it was unpowered!

Still don't get the wing outer planform though.
