Is that the stock of a gun with a cable operated trigger?

The airframe is mainly fresh air and showing enough in a crop was difficult so here's a different view

Hmm, obviously it's an unnatural type of aircraft. Skid arrangement is wrong for an Allouette, so I'll go for a Bell 47 or one of its variants. (though how it could lift that load I don't know)
|
It is definitely unusual, not French...... or Russian.
Manufacturer is not usually associated with rotorcraft. http://i1024.photobucket.com/albums/...psd4784861.jpg |

Correct.
It was a pretty minimalist helicopter and another of those tip driven ones that never seemed to catch on. Don't suppose McDonnell were too worried, they had quite a good alternative product line. YHC |
Thanks for that one. Here is something a little more traditional:

Bristol Bulldog?
|
Too easy, YHC
|
One of my favourite aircraft and polished up looks so good. Nice photo.
Up the speed a bit with this one... http://i1024.photobucket.com/albums/...psdqgwlfat.jpg |
This kind of looks like (but not identical to) a mock up of the Northrop F5 based HESA Saeqeh.
|
Yep, that's what it was cropped to look like !
But it's not. Clue... the nosewheel leg looks familiar. |
Clue... the nosewheel leg looks familiar. |
Well, that nose-wheel leg doesn't get me anywhere either, but I reckon it's pretty old and looks like it may be the North American X-10, a test drone for the later cancelled Navaho Missile ??
|
North American X10 it is.
Mach 2, canard drone from 60 years ago. http://i1024.photobucket.com/albums/...psc62ecb8f.jpg Nose wheel reminded me of another North American product.... http://i1024.photobucket.com/albums/...ps466cb2d0.jpg SincoTC, you have control |
Thanks Zaxis, a nice challenge, it was that raring to go nose high attitude that gave it away to me, rather like the Vigilante too, so it must be in the genes :)
Here's the next one, not a photo of the real thing 'coz all I could find are easily recognisable, but it was made and did fly! http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/...psoweyly5s.jpg |
Hmm, unusual configuration, can't find a clear view of the back end but guessing at something like the Adam A700?
|
Oh well, I had hoped that the unusual view might last a little longer, but there's no fooling you Kitbag, it is indeed the Adam A700 AdamJet, Well done :D
Adam A700 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Kitbag has control:ok: |
True, but its unique configuration made it relatively easy to find on the big G. With that in mind my next one is grainy, old and, I think, pretty generic :ok:

Bristol Jupiter or licensed copy engine?
