It is indeed Trevor, well done:ok: Although there is reference to the MB.81 having a closed cockpit, that does not appear to be the case as there are photo's of different aircraft all having open cockpits.

Incidentally this was Bloch's first production aircraft, 20 having been built, including one used by the RAF.

SincoTC has declared Open House

I have an interesting one, but have to go out for an hour so better not.

Back now to find no takers.

Are you still lurking Ken?

Not the best quality I'm afraid.......

Yes, I am lurking...rocket power?

The first version was, the second proposal was liquid fuel.

Is it the Golovin IVS?

Sure is mate - back to you. :ok:

Thanks David

Here we go:

Motor glider?

It is indeed :ok:

Fournier RF4?
Open house if correct.

cheers,
Jake.

I looked at all the Fourniers, but there appear to be several differences... The transparency curve, springing of the outriggers, pitot probe (?) and fin profile being just a few...!

That said, there's the usual orientation problem..!

Not the RF-4 Jake, but it IS a Fournier:ok:

I think the indentation on the rudder is either a deflection or a distortion of the original photo itself. In a 3-view I have just found, the trailing edge is straight.

Edit to say, having found a further photo I can confirm there is no indentation and it cannot be rudder deflection in that position, so I have replaced the silhouette with the indentation removed.

RF3 perhaps?

Not the RF-3 either!

Going off line now for some hours. If one of you thinks they have the answer and another agrees, please move on to the next challenge :ok:

RF1!

(took a bit of finding and I strongly advise you not to do an image search under 'Fournier'... Another M. Fournier gave his name to a very unfortunate form of gangrene...).

I agree, RF1;

Just a quick check before hitting the hay....yes, just to confirm it is the Fournier RF-01:ok:

Father Dick Byrne, welcome to SC, and you have control.:)

Blimey Ken - posting at 0207!! What time zone is Wales on!!

Father Dick Byrne welcome.

Do you have anything for us?

Please forgive my nascent skills in photoshop...

The landing gear is not shown...

Morning FDB. :)

I assume we're looking at a jet.

Is the wing cranked or is that a rather large probe?

Good morning...

It's a probe.

Good grief!

Then either it's a big probe or, perhaps more likely, a very small aeroplane.

The fin shape seems rather dated - was there an unmanned version?

Morning.

The mighty Pika! :ok:

Yes, the first manned prototype for the Jindivik (the second one had some noticeable differences).

Noyade has control.

Evening Graeme. :ok:

Red or white tonight?

Thanks Father. Been a little busy lately and no silhouettes...open house. :)

Black...tea. :ok:

Continuing the entertainment...

I know you're lurking dunnunda mate...

Piper??? PA-11ish???

Not a Piper Martin, and not from the USA.

Good morning.

Is it a FMA 20 El Boyero?

If it is, Karlark, we've had it before - I posted it! :)

:D:D:D

All yours Karlark.:ok:

Martin, I cannot find it listed under FMA or IA. :\

Russian?....

Yes, it is....

We had this one before too! :)

25th May 2010

Oops :ugh:. I see now it is on the list under a different designation. I'll will declare open house instead.

Edit: Challenge aircraft post deleted. It was the Sukhoi Su-12... aka Sukhoi RK on the list.

Sukhoi Su-12???

Maybe therefore better to delete your post #3994 to avoid confusion for anyone joining the thread.

What's it listed under Martin?

Post another one Karlark unless RR can take the OH.
