DOBLHOFF WNF-342V-2

My prima-vista feeling is that we have had that one quite recently. Let me check.

Doblhoff WNF-342 V2
as per Aviastar ;)

Triple ###! :p

But I've never seen this picture on Pprune, so maybe I remembered its shape because I frequently browse through Aviastar...

Btw, well done skwinty! :ok:

RegDep 19th Aug 2011 20:47

Maybe even so recently that it is not yet on Mel's list …..

In fact 23rd Jul 2010, 09:22 but I am sure later.

skwinty 19th Aug 2011 20:50

Try this one. It's not on the list, I checked.

My first photoshop attempt, can only get better.

V-77 Stinson Gullwing?

skwinty 19th Aug 2011 20:54

Very good Sir, I will have to try harder.:uhoh:

RegDep 19th Aug 2011 20:54

Hey guys, wait for Brian's call!

skwinty 19th Aug 2011 20:56

Sorry, please fill me in on Brian's call:)

HappyPass 19th Aug 2011 20:58

S*** I forgot again!
See, skwinty, a challenge must be validated by the poster before the solver can post a new one.
Else... You'll get a reprimand from LM! There must be order in this thread. ;)

If one cannot monitor a challenge/hasn't one ready/must dash away, can declare an Open House, even before confirmation (the formula, in that case, is "OH if right"), but never can a challenge be posted before a confirmation.

If the poster is not online for a certain number of hours (12 I believe), an agreement can be reached among Ppruners to validate the challenge in absence of the original poster, but this happens in exceptional cases and it must be evident that the guess is correct.

Cool, I will get to learn the rules.

Right now it's bed time for me :zzz:

RegDep 19th Aug 2011 21:01

The rule is that the poster of the challenge has to call the winner, before the cracker goes on. Only in the case of delayed call (over 12 hours) a quorung of "resident PPRuNers" can call the winner or declare open house. See the guidelines in the link http://www.pprune.org/aviation-histo...ml#post3884576.

The heck with the reprimands. It is just to avoid anarchy……

I am heading to bed, too. But don't worry, we all have learned by doing and as we go. You are doing fine skwinty :ok:

RegDep 19th Aug 2011 21:04

See skwinty, you get the rules in stereo. Ain't THAT cool :cool:

And I like your silhouette, too. Better than my first ones :ok:

HappyPass 19th Aug 2011 21:05

'tereo... 'ereo... 'reo... 'eo...
Nite skwinty, Reg! http://factoryjoe.s3.amazonaws.com/e...on-0128-hi.gif

Hittin' the hay too.
See ya.

evansb 19th Aug 2011 21:37

Yes, yes, yes, skwinty is correct. It was indeed the Doblhoff WNF-342V-2. There is so much extraneous chaff on this forum, that it probably appears to the novitiate that there are no rules.

....and that is one of the great things about this thread, compared with some of the boring f:mad: s:mad: I've seen on some other sites!!!

RegDep 20th Aug 2011 08:31

Good morning all :ok:.

So, we are waiting for HP to post, aren't we? :)

HappyPass 20th Aug 2011 08:42

Morning Reg!
I thought mine was to be considered null and void, but if you insist... ;)
