Quick look 2nd pic - Hawker typhoon - sexy plane
5th pic - Hawker Sea Fury
3rd pic - I initially thought Mitchell Marauder...but its not!


....checking on the rest!!!

We have a topic just like this one going on on our board, I can give the link if you are interested...

#1 yb-19
#2 Tempest
#3 Hudson B-??(45??)
#4 Vultee Privateer
#5 Sea Fury

U2U me and let me know

Yes I would be interested Ground zero, I love a bit of virtual plane spotting.

Only one correct guess so far, pic 2 is indeed a Hawker Typhoon.

1. a B-21
2. already given
3. an AT-21
4. tricky one, Convair Liberator
5. British B-37

Now how did you find those? Well done!
Although I'm letting you off a bit as 'British B-37' is remarkably vague


Can anyone be a bit more specific?

The rest of them (despite the absence of manufacturers) are correct and before I get complaints the Liberator was a special version which married the wings, tail etc to a transport fuselage, in the same way that the Lancaster became the York.

Is anyones interest aroused enough to carry on with this sort of thing?thousands of pics available if you want to.

Blackburn, Firebrand

feel better?

Army/Coast Guard/Lockheed brat, remember?

I was drawing planes while most drew stick figures and houses, hehe...

I actually happen to have an affinity for just about any plane with a bubble canopy, as I used to draw them all the time.

EDIT: I'll stay out and let others play if you want, hehe...
I'm pretty good with the designation numbers, but I don't know jack about specifics, etc. I'll leave things like torque, armament, thrust to weight ratios, etc. to the experts

I love miltary thingy's although I was 0 fer the lot Please do keep them rolling. Perhaps you can "drop" a few missles/bombs our way too

I have a few coffee table books up in the attic, but they are little use to me now since I can't either hold or turn the pages. Tanks, Planes, boats, you name it. Anyway keep up the good work!

I can agree with Tupolev ANT-20.
The fourth is Lockheed Constellation (or Constitution ?) or something like this. The name starts with C.

Constellation, you are correct! (dad's company, so you know I had to know that one, hehe....)
