Not a Convair mate.

G'day Graeme,

I think that's an Ilyushin Il-14 ??

Evening Trevor.

Yes it is mate. Your turn. :)

Thanks Mate,

Here's the next, exhausting innit!

In and out of the kitchen again, but will keep an eye on it and try and have a look at your SC

My thoughts.

All white = experimental?
The vertical fin could be 'webbing' between the fuselage and exhaust?

Bell X-5?
Don't wear yourself out. :)

Cunning bugger, well spotted mate!! I was in two minds whether or not to remove the colour :ugh:

It is the Bell X-5

Back to you :ok:

Edit:

Thanks mate; I don't have to now that Ken's joined the party :)

Thanks Trevor. Looked quickly at some X-plane publications. Must admit, some other Bell products also looked promising.

Another...while you cook and chow down...

Evening Graeme,

No chance to to get back for a look last night mate, visitors!!

Is that the wing-root we see, if so I assume it's a delta. Similar to the Convair Delta Dart before it had the final boat-tail extension and revised exhausts! Other than that, no idea and not going to have much free time today :(!

So is it a delta ? Not a Canard? Is that a trace of the fin we see, if so it looks not to have much chord length, unless it's a change of colour that makes is look short. Pure turbojet, 1950's ?

Hi Trevor. It's a dark image from the net. Here's a different image - same aircraft - which should answer all your questions above...

Ah, 'tiz a Breguet 1100 ?

Cheers TC

As always, well done mate. :ok:

Your turn.

Great choice Trevor, just two engine exhausts selected out of a total of the eight the vehicle has I believe.
Mel

Good afternoon Mel,

Sorry for the delay, just come out of a meeting

I've been rumbled it seems! Do you wanna give me a name? :)

Edit:

Going to be in the workshop and away from computer for most of the afternoon; therefore I'm going to give it to Mel now, I know he knows, beside there aren't any other eight engine craft with this configutration.

It is the Russian Ekranoplan "Lun" (Hen Harrier) project 903

Control goes to Mel :D :ok:

Yes, Lun-class ekranoplan that is the one. Here is the next:-

Thanks Mel, a dead heat on posts!!!

You have control :ok:

Evening Mel,

I think that this one does look like the Convair Sea Dart ??

I haven't quickly found a photo with this viewpoint, but I think I see a glimpse of the coloured tail stripes it carried at one time, the keel and a small drain-hole slot!

Hi Trevor. :ok::D You have it it is indeed the Convair Sea Dart.

You regain control.

Thanks Mel,

Let's try the other end for a change!

Hello SincoTC, Looks like a Ryan XV-5 Vertifan.

Open house if correct.

Thanks!
