Wow!

No idea what that is mate - some sort of French racer?

Tachikawa 92

Wonderful stuff! Never seen that before. How come you got it so quick David?

....Lightning pilot....

The challenge was not a racer or French.

I Goggled "1930s twin piston transport aircraft" and scrolled down to page 7 - try it.:)

Try removing the inverted commas.......

Fighter aircraft? Odd that the undercart is braced with a vertical strut?

Lightning Mate 27th Jun 2012 11:51

Not a fighter - liason.


Odd that the undercart is braced with a vertical strut
Presumably to take vertical loads.

Amazing - there's the Curtiss Kingston! _ 14th row. I dunno mate, I give up on "searches", never seems to work for me. Either I recognise it or I don't.

We talking WWII mate?

Lightning Mate 27th Jun 2012 12:00

Yep.......

Noyade 27th Jun 2012 12:02

Yeah, but that would be like a Henschel Hs-126 with an additional strut? I mean why, can't be that heavy?

Noyade 27th Jun 2012 12:03


Yep.......
Thank you.

Many built?

Lightning Mate 27th Jun 2012 12:03

Think about the implications of a hard landing then.


Many built?
Production run 43.

Noyade 27th Jun 2012 12:04

Congrats on 12,000 by the way. :ok:

Lightning Mate 27th Jun 2012 12:05

Thanks mate - I hadn't noticed.

Noyade 27th Jun 2012 12:06

Deceptive silhouette - is it a high-wing?

Noyade 27th Jun 2012 12:07


Production run 43.
****! That's a lot - Japanese?
