Damn! Another airplane!!

ChezDaJez -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 4:59:52 AM)
Looks like a Hurricane, not sure of the model. You can see the wood stringers and fabric on the side. Chez

Tankerace -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 5:12:36 AM)
If its a Hurricane, I'd say II, probably IID. A Hurri one didn't have underwing racks IIRC (note bomb at far right).

Tankerace -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 6:18:39 AM)
I first thought it was a Kittyhawk because of the cockpit, and then I thought it a spit. Not the best angle to shoot a plane.... no pun intended.

jcjordan -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 6:31:26 AM)
It shouldn't be Spit as wings don't have the elliptical look to the rear edge plus no gear near centerline of a/c in pic, it has a wide spread landing gear. To me it still looks to be in the Hurricane family.

ChezDaJez -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 6:43:23 AM)
Exhaust doesn't look right either for a Merlin but I couldn't think of any other wood and fabric construction aircraft. Chez

rkr -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 8:16:34 AM)
Morane Saulnier comes to my mind, but I guess they were not used in pacific. I'd say some Dutch recon plane.

Tankerace -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 8:22:07 AM)
I don't know why, but the cockpit and wing keep screaming P-40! at me.... wierd.

TheElf -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 9:21:30 AM)
Hurricane IIB in Soviet VVS Service 72 IAP.

Onime No Kyo -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 10:08:42 AM)
I think thats a stretch. And yet, there's something about the pilot's garb that screams Russian. Maybe its the pantlegs tucked into the boots.

wild_Willie2 -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 10:55:12 AM)
that engine mount just screams "tiger moth" to me, but that is impossible as it was a old biplane. It DOES make me speculate that it is a (old) british engine mount. Alas, still NO IDEA what it could be.......................

steveh11Matrix -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 12:49:01 PM)
My first thought was Hurricane, too - but the engine cowling really doesn't look right. However, it may just be the photo - after all, where's the propellor? Steve.

Subchaser -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 5:35:32 PM)
One of those Morane-Saulnier 406 fighters from Escadrille 2/ Groupe Aerien Mixte 596 of Vichy IndoChina Air Force …just a guess

Crimguy -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 7:11:12 PM)
Gotta put in a vote. I think it's a Yak 7 (B?)

Stavka_lite -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/9/2005 9:52:52 PM)
My vote is for MS406, Cockpit and nose cowling doesn't look right for a Yak-7

m10bob -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 5:20:02 AM)
M.S. 406.. Absolutely not even close to being a Hurricane,nor a Spit,nor a Curtiss,nor a Swordfish,nor a Lancaster,nor a B 17,nor a .............. [:D]

Tankerace -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 5:23:31 AM)
Sopwith 2F1 Camel in camoflage [:D] Yes, I'm kidding.

Stvitus2002 -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 6:19:26 AM)
I've seen that photo before. 99.999999% certain it's a MS406. Well...mostly certain...sorta..kinda... [:'(] Joe D.

Brady -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 7:17:22 AM)
Morane-Saulnier 406, it is[:)] ................... Subchaser refers to what I was thinking of when I dug up this pick and decided to use it.

Cap Mandrake -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 7:51:50 AM)
Brady; Is this ugly weapons of war week? That thing is as bad as that Dutch Destroyer. [;)]

Tankerace -> RE: Name This...(325) (3/10/2005 7:52:36 AM)
