Thanks RegDep,

I am new to the thread so I have not read all the postings.

Will endeavour to do so.

No problem skwinty. And going through all would be too tough (some 31,000 posts :eek:)

But we (usually, often, …) check Mel's list, and only exceptionally post something again. Exceptions being pure forgetfulness or absent-mindedness, new and challenging angle, or just to check if others are awake.

Reposting the challenge from previous page for easy viewing:

Welcome, Skwinty, by the way!!!!!!

Is that a Supermarine Walrus?

No, it is not, skwinty.

Reg,

Pusher or puller?

A puller Mate.

A yank, mate?

A Yank, yes. With a little bit different question you could have gotten a little bit different answer, though. Only a little.

Edit: My forecast of first 1,000 posts is going to rats. We'll make it today, two weeks before my prediction :O

Whoops… Cat got your tongue?

Was this a very early Consolidated job?

Not Consolidated. Someone more interested in railroads than flying, in fact…..

I'll get you for this.............

What would you have said if RR had asked 'American?'

How about if I had asked if it was a Yankee? Would that have got the differnt answer?

That would have got you lots of Clippers prolly.

Well, had he asked "Italian?" I would have answered…….

Presumably no because you have said it is a Yank!! :uhoh:

I would have answered "Well, there is a connection……"

Dornier - Do.24ATT Amphibian?

Fairchild bought out Dornier and Dornier built railroad equip as well as aircraft.

ETA: Wrong type.:mad:
