Guess The Aircraft!

IL-86 if I'm not mistaken.  

 

Almost had me going for the B707 but the rear of the turbojet is shaped differently

[Jabo]

Squawk has it (will post original later)

Haha!  I've been waiting for this.    Time for something a little closer to 'home'.

 

[Jabo]

Taylorcraft- Maybe a BC12? Floatplane obviously

 

Jabo

 

Actually, now I'm not so sure.. Oh well, have this as a starter

[Squawk]

Not Taylorcraft.

 

Hint, not all the 'clues' are in the picture.

Bush Hawk FBA-2

[Sweper]

Bloody hell, this one was difficult. Do you mean homebulit or homemade with "home" It is small it is. "Little"?

[Squawk]

I'll have to give this one to Bongo, as it is the Found Aircraft company FBA-2C

However the 'Bush Hawk' designation is for the FBA-2C2.  Of modern design.

 

'Canadian' built and produced between 62-65 only 34 were built.  With its enlarged cargo doors it tried to do the smaller jobs that the DHC-2Beaver was over qualified for, but was out performed by its contemerary, the Iconic C185.

 

An upgraded aircraft, the Centennial 100 was developed and 5 were built.   It approximated the performance of the C185 but unfortunately the company closed its doors before any more were produced.

I will have to admit my familiarity is limited with this type, I knew Canada had an independent manufacturer that made bush planes and had to do some CSI googling to help me.

Hey there you vocal god.

 

OK, here goes, I hope this is difficult enough.

 

Need to be a real anorak to know this I'm pretty sure of that.

[BluBear]

That is a tough one!

 

Compared the profile to the whole Pilatus family and it's neither of them... Not an Orlick, Tucano, or Texan II either...

[DD_Bongodriver]

Tehehe!

[Sweper]

Looks like something agent 007 flew. Similar to a BD-5. But the tail fin differs a bit. Some sort of mini jet?

[DD_Bongodriver]

Negative, I'm in Geneva right now so on my iPad and can't upload any more pictures for clues, so I will say it is a British aircraft, it's a real cracker.

[FoolTrottel]

Is it a Real Cracker P12E?

[Sweper]

Arrr... I think I found it. Short tucano? Yeees!?

[DD_Bongodriver]

Negative and negative

Time to 'crack' open some history books

[BluBear]

Of course!

 

It's a Norman Aircraft NDN-1T Firecracker!

 

Good one Bongo

Ding ding ding we have a winner........you sad geek!

[BluBear]

Ok then, here we go chaps!

[Pooka]

Might it be a CAC Wirraway ?

[DD_Fenrir]

Miles Messenger

[Pooka]

Thats it Fen, I thought the glass was the back of the cockpit, but looking closer I can see its the leading edge of the wings.

[BluBear]

And i nearly left off the leading edge of the wing to make it harder! Darn it

 

Over to you Fenrir!
