Lets see: overwing props, gull wing.

Suggests a floatplane to me, closest I could find is a Beriev Be-12.

Though the engines don't match....

Veeery nice try!
Be-12 is a wrong answer though.

Suddenly you guys are not so omniscient, huh?

Ok, here's a bigger image:

It gives away the main trick, so it should be much-much easier to name the plane now.

Ah, closer inspection of the smaller picture would have shown the same thing.

That be the trailing edge, which means that those are push props....

Still haven't found it though - was i correct in thinking it is a float plane? (or has water landing capabilities)?

May I say at this point that I know exactly what it is, and had a fair idea before the updated picture (but didn't bother researching to find out exactly what model it is).

The angle of the latest picture is revealing though.

Yes.

Too late

Piaggio P.136

For some reason I completely missed it when doing early research - I seem to have managed to miss half of the Italian planes...

Yay! We have a winner

That's quite alright kettel, I didn't want to answer it 'cause then I'd have to come up with a new one!

My initial thought was the 166, but the angle of the new photo suggested it was a taildragger.

Well, at least I managed to buffle you up for a moment

Yes a predicament I normally face, however I thought I would go for this one, as no-one else seemed to...

It does however mean I have to find the next plane...

Hopefully this will be nice and easy...

Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde :)

Or Tu-144...

mmarvelstrain · Post by **mmarvelstrain** » 23 Apr 2009 22:55

Indeed, it is Concordski...

Wasn't going to make it that easy...

Oh, c'mon, there are only 2 planes with a sharp nose like that

Anyway, here's the next one:

Fokker F.27/50. Is the text on the side meant to be blurred? I can still read it, especially if I screw my eyes up a bit.

kettel · Post by **kettel** » 24 Apr 2009 17:56

Nice one!
Yes, it's Fokker 50. I blurred the text on the side so it was not too easy to guess

Post by **PikkaBird** » 24 Apr 2009 18:25

Please don't guess this one too fast, I'm going to bed.
