Hawker Hawfinch ?

If you are wondering where the Open house posting went I edited it to put up a new challenge but you beat me to it by a few seconds, so the easiest course seemed to be to delete it.....

Hawker Hawfinch ?

I have finally learned the trick: from now on it's going to be downhill!

Hello Carson! Has it got an Argus engine?

carson1934 12th Dec 2012 17:02

No Sir, the engine was manufactured by a famous still extant car manufacturer of southern Europe....

I believe the manufacturers of this aircraft went on to build helicopters.

Noyade 12th Dec 2012 18:39

Looks Italian?

Yes Noyade it is indeed the Alfa Romeo 110ter driven Agusta CP-110 (1951)
Your turn

Thank you Carson. Good clues and I'm glad you have the image loading problem beaten.

But for the moment - Open House. Cheers mate. :)

Playing two challenges tonight
Outstanding! That's the Kokoda Spirit mate. :ok:

Westland?
That turret version - the P.12?

Karlark 12th Dec 2012 21:27

Arsenal-Delanne 10?

edit: never mind. :) Noyade's is the one I was thinking of, and he was there first.

Noyade 12th Dec 2012 21:47

Hello Karl. However, I think we should be seeing a starboard end-plate from that distance, if it is the turreted Lysander?

one11 12th Dec 2012 22:03


it is the turreted Lysander
I had a clue waiting about commonality of components with my last one the GAL56 ( Lysander main undercarriage) but you are all too quick off the mark.
Control to Noyade.

And just curious, (I don't know the answer) but what is that aircraft behind Gregory Peck? The year is given as 1953....
