Yep... it is the Embraer EMB-326 Xavante, it is an MB 326 manufactured in Brazil... well done

Hi there all,

3) Bristol Beaufort

Arg, missed the boat yet again. Bloody time zones!

The one everybody missed (surprisingly) was the Lockheed Electra, the original airliner upon which the P-3 Orion is based, go on, have another look

Hi all,

2) Beriev Be-12 Mail

5) Fouga Magister

Hello there BHR, your identification of the Beaufort earlier was spot on but, alas, a little wide of the mark with those two.

1# Beagle
2# Bev BE-10 Mallow.

#3. Breguet 763 Provence
#4. Looks like perhaps a development or prototype of the Canadair CT-114
#5. Potez-Heinkel C.M.191

AJSR, Be 10 is correct but Beagle what? You wouldn't identify a Raptor by saying 'its a Lockheed' would you?

veltro, 3 & 5 are correct, care to be specific with 4?

Argh, I knew I was going to get called on that one lol.

Canadair CL-41R

Those Canadian planes can be hard to track down.

Beagle Bulldog - was concentrating to much on the Bev 10-

thats right veltro, the one with the Starfighter nose.

That just leaves no 1 to get, sorry ajsr, not a Beagle Bulldog.

there isnt many left - Beagle Basset

You got it, there was only the Airedale and Terrier left I think

Could alway buy a PUP

Aah Beagle! Coulda been the British Cessna, if only people bought them

Get ready for a particulary nasty finish to a not altogether nice selection







(told you it would be horrible!)

#2. Sud-Est SE.200
#3. Cierva W.11 Air Horse
#4. Short S35 Shetland
#5. Portsmouth Aerocar Major - Remembered that ugly bird from one of my books.

when you started your game, I had to go sleep because of time differenc. I find someone who almost talk out the pics immediately, I don't believe that their pics are so complete. that should to be some method to look for it. could you tell me the truth?

I've observed this game a long time. but there are some pics which you never gave an answer. for instance below two:



may I give you a suggest that you may make a list to show correct every tmes, because someone like me don't understand some slange in it

High emile, I'm sure those two were answered, but its a long thread and I'm not going to look so I will just tell you that the helo is a Westland Belvedere (originally called Bristol 192) and the bomber is a Piaggio 108.

As for getting the answers, well speaking for myself, I do generally know them but occasionally if I think I know it but am not sure I might use google to confirm it, but as there is no clue in the URL of the photo as to its ID you do have to already know what you think it is in the first place or you will never find the answer so its not really cheating.

For example, say AJSR posts a photo of a D.520 fighter. I know it is French, from WW2, and I have a suspicion that it is a MS 406. Of course I wouldn't think that but bear with me.

I google for MS 406 and see a picture of a clearly different plane.

I have not cheated as i still don't know what it is and I have nothing else to go on so I have to admit defeat.

If I get lucky and I chance across the correct plane I will admit it, see above when I did just this. Otherwise I just knew the answer.
