Or a Ford Trimotor’s turd

Leftover offcuts from a Ju52; possibly Friedrichshafen looking at the airship mooring mast in the background.

Indeed Beags has it... The Ford-Stout Dragonfly. Not what you'd call a successful model...Although he did seem to be quite good at extracting money from credulous investors:hmm:

:D I like that one:p

621andy, as that thing wasn't technically a 'flying machine', I leave it to you to propose another challenge!

Getting my knuckles rapped by BEagle...I don't know whether to be embarrassed or proud:O

Yes, it didn't technically fly, but the thought was there:}

Sooo, here's another attempt...

XB-51?

AKA the Gilbert XF-120 in the movie Toward the Unknown (1956) ;)
Which actually had some very interesting aircraft and airfield scenes :)

Asturias once again gets it in record time...This 24hr rule is a bit of a pain, but hey rules is rules:ugh:

A special Mention in Despatches for Longer Ron:p

Martin XB-51. Obviously too mainstream and not esoteric enough:p

I was reading my Gunston last weekend - he seemed to think it was a pretty good aircraft for its time.......................... thio it was a bit of punt as I'd never seen a picture of it in plan from below.

Open house I'm afraid - I'm out and about until Monday

I guessed you'd all get it with a 'normal' view which is why I selected the underside view; but obviously even that was too simple:}

Anyone else want to play?

As no-one seems to want to play here's another quick one...

Bleriot 125 I think.

It is...Well done! Your go now...

Too close to the What Cockpit thread! Open house please.

Try this one.

Martin-Baker MB 5

An incomplete Kyushu J7W Shinden?

Kawasaki Ki-64?

Chevvron has it with the MB5.
I'm glad that others had a stab though.
