I made the silhouette from an illustration from what I've now dubbed "The Book of Morten".

Maybe catch Graeme's before he goes to bed, but I have good reason to believe that this is a Junkers S36 !!

Better be OH if he confirms, as I will be too busy in the workshop this afternoon to put another one up:(

Junkers S36
Well done Trevor, it is indeed the Junkers. :ok:

The workshop demands his attention = open house.

To keep things moving try this easy one. Manufacture and designation required:-

Interesting aircraft. It look as as though it is pretending to be something else.

Not a radial and with fixed undercarriage. Some type of racer perhaps and possibly French.

Noyade 14th Aug 2012 20:43

I like your Fokker Mel. :) I had a quick look late last night and thought it was Russian!

The one above (I think I posted this a long time ago?) is the Max Plan PF.204?

sabredog 14th Aug 2012 21:50

Correct. The Max Plan PF.204.
YHC.

Judging by the panel on the side of the engine cowling it is from Tommy Sopwith's stable. The F.1 Camel perhaps?

Noyade 15th Aug 2012 10:30

Welcome back Mel.

Indeed it is mate, the Sopwith Camel. A new one for your list.

:)

MReyn24050 15th Aug 2012 10:36

Thanks Graeme. Here is the next. Manufacturer and name required.

Immediate thought was the Nanchang CJ-6.

So therefore.......from the USA?

MReyn24050 15th Aug 2012 10:47

You are nearly there it is from NAMC.

Noyade 15th Aug 2012 10:56


NAMC.
I'm thinking that would be Japanese? A Japanese version of the Yak/Nanchang?

I keep seeing the name Haiyan - but I think that's Chinese.

MReyn24050 15th Aug 2012 11:28

Sorry Graeme I was being too pedantic. You had it the first time it :ok:. The photograph was captioned the NAMC (Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company) Haiyan.
NAMC decided in 1985 to undertake a conversion of the CJ-6 basic trainer to produce a multi-purpose agricultural and forestry aircraft. The prototype Haiyan A flew 17 august 1985.

From that shot of the aircraft it could have been either.

You have control

Noyade 15th Aug 2012 11:39

Thanks mate. There is an American aircraft on Aerofiles (I forget the manufacturer) with a designation 225, (I think) which is what I thought it may have been.

Let me know if the cropping is excessive....

MReyn24050 15th Aug 2012 12:56

No cropping is fine. This one is also American I think.
