Czech?............

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 11:17

Not the Gotha Graeme, and not a German machine.

Edit to say, not Czech either.

Noyade 16th Sep 2011 11:20

European?...........

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 11:24

It is European Graeme.

Noyade 16th Sep 2011 11:34

The Romanian SET.10....?

Edit....No.

Enjoy your day mate! I'll keep looking....:ok:

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 11:49

Not the SET.10.

Will be offline for next few hours. If someone guesses and 2 of you agree then happy for you to proceed to the next challenge.

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 16:36

All very quiet so clue time.....its a British design, evolved from an aircraft that has been the subject of a previous challenge.

Fairey Fleetwing

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 17:30

I see the likeness Reg, but not a Fairey design.

RegDep 16th Sep 2011 17:48

A Hawker, then? Or Avro?

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 18:33

Neither of those Reg. I think you need to look at this challenge from a different perspective. This is a 1970's design!!

RegDep 16th Sep 2011 18:47

WHHHAAAAT!!?!

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 18:55


WHHHAAAAT!!?!
Exactly....it was BASED on a 1930's design....that we have had before!

RegDep 16th Sep 2011 19:05

Homebuilt?

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 19:09


Homebuilt?
Yes:ok:
And the aircraft on which it was based was also offered as a homebuild...and STILL IS!!

RegDep 16th Sep 2011 19:10

Good grief.

skytrain10 16th Sep 2011 19:22

I should point out that as far as I can see only 2 of the challenge aircraft were ever built, of which one remains.
