I see evansb out there.....

Got anything mate? If not I have.

Good afternoon / evening Mate :)

Back for a couple of days. What's up?

No takers!!

Welcome back Reg. :ok:

Nothing's wrong mate - I didn't want to appear a hog!

Maybe one of the some 60 Slignsbys……

Edit: my post above was after your challenge, so the time machine is still coughing…..

Scrap the Slingsbys

Reinhard Cumulus 1951

:D:D

This particular one was 1953.

Your thread. :ok:

I know Ernie. He wasn't me :p

Thanks Mate, here is yours to crack in a speedily manner

You are the slowest wingman in the West!!!

They called you Ernie you know.

Evening Reg....your's is an interesting looking machine. Trying to work out what the lump is under the fuselage....American?

Skytrain, yes, American.

Sorry for my slow, just grilling Irish rack of lamb…..

:eek:RegDep ,you mean a rack of Irish Lamb :ok: lol

Irishair, my first language is not English (nor Irish), but one of my first preferences is Irish lamb. I'll leave the details to the experts :). Whichever way, the outcome was perfect. Need to go back for seconds….

Skwinty, correct.

I have it as Curtiss-Wright CW-22 but it is the same, I believe.

Over to you skwinty! :ok:

Edit: I see you edited it so there you go! :D

Thanks RegDep,
Try this one, should be easy.:hmm:

Evening skwinty....the Vultee XP-54.....?

Evening skwinty,

I do believe that's a Vultee XP-54 "Swoose Goose"

Just got in and going to get something to eat now, so Open House please if correct.

Edit: Snap!! well done Ken :ok: (I shouldn't have stopped to ask for the OH)!! At least both answers came AFTER the Challenge post :rolleyes:

Hi SincoTC and skytrain.

skytrain has control.:ok:

Thanks skwinty...and well done Trevor.. just pipped you at the post:)

Here's the next challenge:

http://i551.photobucket.com/albums/i...r/cf3dd4bf.jpg

Is it a Robin Alpha ?? Not sure which one as there seems to be a lot of them! There's a similar angle shot in Wiki of an HR200/100

The horizontal tail looks about right, but I haven't found one with that aerial wire!

Will have to ask for an Open House if it is please, as I'm off to bed soon for a 5am start tomorrow!

Good to see you're light on again Reg :ok:

Evening Trevor...not the Robin Alpha or the HR200/100. You are very close:ok:, but this is an earlier design, originating from the late 60's, and quite different in its appearance.
Edit to say, I think the wire aerial is a red herring as others of this mark do not appear to have one.

Back again Ken,

I wasn't entirely convinced about the Alpha, so I just had to have another look!

I found this photo that rather looks like the one you used:

Photo Unknown Robin HR.100/210D Safari D-EHPL

the caption says it's a Robin HR.100/210D Safari


But then again, the photo of the Ambrosini I found after LM posted, was your picture, but the Italian website captioned it as an Ambrosini F4 Rondone, I should have zoomed in as it had F-7 painted on the cowling!!

Really off now so OH please if it's correct this time!

Got there in the end Trevor:ok:. Yes, its the Robin HR100/210 Safari, a variant of the original HR100/180 Royal of 1969.

Here's a side view which shows its rather distinctive design.

SincoTC has declared Open House

Morning / morgen / evening. :)

We have not had one of these for a while.

http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/u...g_29/wed-1.jpg

Good morning to you Mate :)

Busy sleeving.....

Not me :(.

You mean motor gliders?

Yes I do.

(also preparing the Christmas Special)

That picture taken at Turweston?

Dunno!

I'l try to find out - standby.....

No - it's in Belgium mate.

Its a Schwammle HS-3 Motorlerche I believe?

If so will have to be Open House

Bingo!!! :D

Pity mate, but it's OPEN HOUSE again.

Boohoo :{

My PERFECT site is silent about it, but somewhere else I see that it is a motorised version Schleicher Ka-4 Rhönlerche II . . . .

And, of course as always, the web is full of its pictures…...

Just been engaging in banter on the Military thread. :}

Got anything Reg?

When your adrenalin level is back or close to the safe level, please make a stab at this one, too:

http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/...Dep/3108-1.jpg

Looks like it's time to go to Aerofiles.

You might Mate, but what a pure waste of time.

Took a look at Military. Did not see much adrenaline there, though :ok:.

Hi Reg! Would the "step" in the top of the fuselage actually be the wing? RR

Edit: I'd say its a re-engined Junkers?

"On top of the fuselage" is an antenna - behind the challenge aircraft is another aircraft.

Why re-engined? This aircraft came with at least seven different engines.

A good day so far - please standby.....
