Anyone interested in knowing who built this thing?

RegDep, I do not know when, here is the line from Wiki.

Edmund Schneider emigrated to Australia, where he developed the Baby design into his Baby 3 and Baby 4, which had enclosed cockpits.


Spit161, welcome, (somewhat belated):ok:

This had open cockpits.

Builder was a gliding club established in 1942 by employees of the Department of Aircraft Production, Beaufort Division, which built Bristol Beaufort bombers for the Royal Australian Air Force.

Beaufort Gliding Club Merlin 2

Fix the fourth word.

And forget the number.

Beaufort gliding Club Phoenix.

Turbine C47?

Nope, but just as old.:)

Ki-93? It's too big to be a Me110!

Is it Russian ?

Yes, it's the Ki-93.

Do you remember the name?

Nope. It escapes me!

Rikugun Ki-93 Giken, but I don't think there was an Allied Code Name assigned. Was there?

It was a prototype and did not make it to the war, so maybe did not need one.

Ok, you can beat me by one point.:E

Rikugun, a cool looking aircraft.

You have control, Spit161.:ok:

RegDep, according to Japanese Army Aircraft 1930-1950 - The Big Omnipedia

Ki-93 Rikugun Type 6 light bomber. CADS code name Nick. Heavily-armored ground attack aircraft possibly inspired by American A-38 Grizzly and Australian Commonwealth Ostrich. Intended to replace light bombers suich as the Ki-51 and Ki-71 it was too large and heavy to copy their essential characteristic, an ability to operate off bases only a few minutes from the front lines. Production of the Ki-93 was limited as a result and the type quickly faded from front-line service.

It's easy!
Anyhow, could one of you PM me with the best way to do silhouettes from pictures on GIMP or similar?

cheers.

Lockheed SR-71 - or if not the YF-12A?

It is the SR71.

You have control.
