Garrison Melmoth II...?
For someone who has no idea you've come up with a pretty good guess:ok:. Not the Melmoth II as we've had it before...but you are very very close!

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 10:27

Perhaps Mr. Garrisons first Melmoth of 1973.

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 10:34


For someone who has no idea
I was referring to the UAV mate...:(

It is indeed, the Melmoth I, based on the Practavia Pilot Sprite of 1968.

LM has control

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 10:39

Too late, but officially the Garrison OM-1 Melmoth?
Based on the British Practavia Sprite.

Thanks Ken, but I feel this one should go to Graeme.

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 10:42

Thanks, but I'm heading to bed shortly...

Got one with a pilot? :)

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 10:46

Yep.

Please standby......

+pilot!

Nice one mate. :ok:

Back to you......

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 11:02

Thanks David. OK, a quick one and a clue for the "Challenge" thread...

Yes. I took my reference as Air Britain which just used the term Garrison Melmoth I, but I'm sure OM-1 is the official designation, albeit that the official designation of the Melmoth II, according to the FAA, is....Melmoth II! (as opposed to OM-2)


Thanks Ken, but I feel this one should go to Graeme.
More than happy with that as Graeme came up with Melmoth:ok:

Looks like its now back with you Graeme anyway:ok:

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 11:08

Sukhoi Su-15?

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 11:10

Sukhoi Su-15
(II)

Your control Ken. :ok:

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 11:18

Before you disappear mate, I'll wish you goodnight. :ok:

Noyade 14th Nov 2011 11:25

Thanks mate. Cheers :ok:


skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 11:30

Thanks Graeme. And good night!

Here we go:

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 11:35

Low wing or shoulder?

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 11:41


Low wing or shoulder?
High wing!

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 11:46

Special-purpose?

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 11:57


Special-purpose?
This aircraft was built as a transport. The particular variant I have chosen was designed for a more specific purpose.

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 12:11

Sorry to leave you mate, but I too must go.

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 12:26

Ok catch you later...expect Trevor will have a coffee break soon:)

Karlark 14th Nov 2011 12:32

Good afternoon Ken,

maybe I can take a stab;
Is it a Latecoere 28?
Mail carrier?

Just having my eye opener cup of coffee. :)

SincoTC 14th Nov 2011 12:41

Good afternoon Ken,

Too late for coffee, 'tiz lunch break, but too late for the answer!!

That looks like another good call from Karlark :D:D

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 13:06

Good morning Karl.
Looks like that first coffee hit the spot...yes, its the Latecoere 28 - in this case the 28.2 mail carrier:ok:

http://i551.photobucket.com/albums/i...r/7c626337.jpg

Karlark has control

Karlark 14th Nov 2011 13:11

Thanks Ken...Hmmm, let's see... keeping it high wing, anyway;

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 13:19

Extra 400...

Karlark 14th Nov 2011 13:23

Not the 400... ;)

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 13:26

500 then.....

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 13:26

It's got wing tanks, so the EA500 I think?

Karlark 14th Nov 2011 13:29

Lightning has control by a nanosecond!

Skytrain almost in for the steal! :)

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 13:39

Less typing Ken and you might have beaten me to it.

There's one parked a couple of hundred yards from here.

How about another helo......

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 13:56

Cicare CH-2?

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 14:01

Going well today innit!

All yours Ken. :ok:

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 14:06

Yep, ticking along nicely:ok:

So is the Extra based there now or just visiting?

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 14:08

It lives here - privately owned.

Karlark 14th Nov 2011 14:23

Looks like an Ilyushin Il-4?

skytrain10 14th Nov 2011 14:24


Looks like an Ilyushin Il-4?
Not an IL-4 Karl, but you are close.

Lightning Mate 14th Nov 2011 14:35

In line engines.

Il-8?
