Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 OK Guys, try this one, should be easy. You keep using that word 'easy', but i'm not sure you know what it means. Really cool looking aircraft...i'm looking forward to finding out what it is. Link to post Share on other sites

Tim Harris 1 Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 OK, here goes Few clues: mid 30s, 6 machine guns, I cropped the picture to make it a little more tricky, however the undercarriage should give it away Link to post Share on other sites
dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 I think M Poirot would have used his little grey cells to guess this one! Link to post Share on other sites
dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 No one got this yet, It's name suggests it would be gr8 at taxying around Los Angeles! Link to post Share on other sites

J G 927 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Its Belgium? Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Found it thanks to all the clues dropped all over the place up there. Belgium L.A.C.A.B. GR 8 "Doryphore" If correct...zero credit to me other than being able to link a carp ton of Alan's clues together. Very cool looking in an ugly duckling sort of way....the belly gunner position doesn't look that fun. Link to post Share on other sites
J G 927 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 That's a real munter airplane! Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Well...that was easy peasy Maybe I should have used the rear half? LOL http://www.luft46.com/henschel/hs132.html Looks like a fun little ride...albeit in the prone position. Over to you Jan. Link to post Share on other sites

dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Must have had pretty heavy snow in Boston that year, bet it played havoc with the runway! Link to post Share on other sites
jankees 917 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 OK, over to you Alan, clearly too easy.. Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Was this "Track Test" done on an April 1rst by any chance? What a stupid F'n Idea...at least if Snow was the issue it was meant to solve. All that weight and mechanical complexity to replace a pair of Skis??? Link to post Share on other sites
dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Ok guys, here's a fairly easy one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
jankees 917 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 too bad they never built it, certainly looks good! I'll take another five days I think.. Hawker P-1121: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawker_P.1121 so who knows what this is? Link to post Share on other sites
