allardjd 1,853 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yes, indeed. Very cool airplane. Congratulations. The poor guys in the UK never even had a chance to look before you got it. Your turn. You should try your luck at Guess the Airport too. John Link to post Share on other sites
IcedUpPitotTube 0 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Thanks John. I'll post my submission tomorrow; got to go to bed now. Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I knew it straight away, but at 5.30 in the morning I was still quite nicely tucked up in bed! Link to post Share on other sites
M31 0 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Starting to follow these topics now, guessed that was the Globemaster too straight away, amazing Aircraft, been inside one at an airshow. The view perspective was a good one, but it was the undercarriage struts poking through the little doors that gave it away straight away for me ... I think this happens when the C-17 lowers its self after landing for ease of cargo exit loading and unloading. Link to post Share on other sites
IcedUpPitotTube 0 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Okay, I won't be able to post my pic, because I won't be able to access the sim in the next week or so. So I will give the picture submission title to hurricanemk1c, who guessed it publicly after me. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 ...or you could post a RW pic of an airplane. It doesn't HAVE to be a sim screenshot. John Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I've posted RW shots in this topic (or was it the old one?) before - if you still want me to do it, either PM me or post here Link to post Share on other sites
IcedUpPitotTube 0 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 All right then: Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 That would be a Dassault Mercure 100.... The downside to using a real life photo by someone else is that it makes it so much easier to find since, as you did, you should include the source and copyright information Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Knew it, but I'm about 6-7 hours too late! Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hopefully what I've got lined up for you now is a bit harder than my last attempt at this.. I think Kieran spotted that one with his eyes closed I'll just wait for a nod of approval from Andrew before I post it... Link to post Share on other sites
IcedUpPitotTube 0 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Go ahead. Nice job. I believe the copyright info gave it away, and the airline. Was hoping some people would confuse it with the 737. Almost the same, except the Mercure was a fail in sales. Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Thanks Andrew, and without the website and photographer I wouldn't have had a clue... Now then, let's move on the the next one. Real World photo this time, but one of my own... As I said, hopefully a bit harder, but some of you will probably know what it is without clues. Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Godden 943 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Now, considering your recent focus on the Republic RC-3 'Seabee', that would be my first guess. The main gear design is consistent with the 'Seabee', and the hull, forward of the gear and the door appear to confirm that. Cheers Andrew Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Indeed it is Andrew (darn, I should have cropped it even more, and left out the keel and landing gear ). The full image that I cropped it from looks like this. Over to you! Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Godden 943 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Got stuck in a navigation loop there for a while, but I am now out of it. Sorry for the delay, but here is the next one. Cheer Andrew Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't got masses of supporting evidence on this on, so its a bit of a stab.... Dornier Do28 Skyservant? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dornier_Do_28 Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 That sure looks right. I didn't have a clue. Tough one, Andrew. John Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Godden 943 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 And just when I thought this might just be obscure enough to get a few guesses. But the Dornier Do 28 'Skyservant' it is indeed. Well done Mulletman on a "...a bit of a stab.". Model is freeware by Classic Wings. Cheers Andrew Link to post Share on other sites
mulletman 0 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Well done Mulletman on a "...a bit of a stab.". It was a bit of luck to be honest, rather than being sure...something about its design made it look STOL, so I searched ‘’STOL, high wing, low engine’’ and after a bit of rummaging/refining found the Do28. Funnily enough, ended up on the Classic Wings website. It’s a neat looking aircraft though, and looks like a good freeware aircraft to fly. On to the next one...A real photo this time, as I haven’t been able to find any FS versions of this aircraft. It’s not my photo, but I will edit in the photo credit once its been guessed-correctly. (This one’s easy, but I don’t want to make it that easy!) Original Photo Kok Chwee Sim. (Airliners.net) Link to post Share on other sites

(Airliners.net) Hello all, sorry i havent been back here to post clues sooner....however better late than never....cant believe there hasnt been any guesses though. Anyway, clues. I said that i couldnt find any FS versions of this aircraft. Not strictly true. I cant find any FS versions of this variant. And odds are you have had a go at piloting one of this aircrafts family in FS at some point. Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 My intial thought was the 757, but now I'm thinking Tu-204? Link to post Share on other sites
