Let's add some clues, shall we?

Experimental, pusher, first version of a racer which is probably more famous than this one. Some differences, obviously.

Edit: the clues were superfluous after all! :ok:

Well done, your turn! :D:D:D

Quite the dashing disco-era figure in the cockpit of the JM-2. Here is the next challenge:

The 1974 235-mph Miller JM-2 Texas Jem
That really sent the Giggle into uncharted waters :suspect:

RegDep 21st Aug 2011 21:28

Junkers Ju 322

evansb 21st Aug 2011 21:28

I didn't need to Google the JM-2, as I've seen the aircraft close-up and in-person.

evansb 21st Aug 2011 21:29

Sorry Reg, my challenge is not a Junkers.

HappyPass 21st Aug 2011 21:30

Saw this one today...
De Monge Typ 7.5
Bugatti-powered
...from a site where the Leviathan engine can also be found... :E

RegDep 21st Aug 2011 21:33

I saw that, too. Just below the Breguet Br 20. But I forgot. I blame my advanced age and fragile health :uhoh:.

evansb 21st Aug 2011 21:34

HP is correct.:ok: Louis De Monge's Type 7.5 twin-boom, shrouded motor job. HP has control.

With no reference to your beautiful challenge, HP, I bid good night.

prepared and had Iberian pork chops, sauce fines herbes et moreilles, green beans and baby carrots, with Fleurie 2008, and am as good as gone.

Good night, see you guys tomorrow :ok:

HappyPass 21st Aug 2011 21:52

Ye sure know how ta have a good time, doncha? :ok:
See ya tomorrow!

I'm turning in too.
Knowing that you folks are not the average John or Jane's Doe, I'm sure you will know where to search.
I'll be back around 8.00 GMT, but if someone guesses it before I'm back and you're itching to go please feel free to go ahead without me.
Until then.

Good morning HP :),

Another nightime raid I'm afraid, first time on today and no other lights on!

I believe that contraption is the VUITTON-HUBER helicopter of 1908 ?

Have to ask for another Open House if correct, as it's an early start again tomorrow and a busy day ahead, so I may not get back 'til lunch break!

Well done on your 4K Reg :D, but lookout for HP, he only started in February and is already well past 1000 :ooh:

HappyPass 22nd Aug 2011 07:37

Morning TC,
looks like you got my not-too-subtle Jane's 1913 clue...
The Vuitton-Huber of 1908 it is! :D:D:D
Open House

skwinty 22nd Aug 2011 07:41

HappyPass 22nd Aug 2011 07:45

As LM would have put it...

Wot you on mate - I want some!
Edit: Russian tail?

skwinty 22nd Aug 2011 07:47

Battleship camo, works a treat.:E

ETA: Not Russian but European.

RegDep 22nd Aug 2011 07:48

Good morning gentlemen!

Y'all on something?

skwinty 22nd Aug 2011 07:51

I will be on novocaine at 12. :mad:

HappyPass 22nd Aug 2011 08:00

Oh and btw, looks like Mate's tutorial did wonders, this one's really good! Keep it up! http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ies/thumbs.gif
