Know WW2 planes . Couple of quizzes for the enthusiasts .

I came across these on my news feed and thought it would be fun to share . For the record i did not do so well on the first one and am sure others will do a lot better . Oh and dont ask . The second quiz is more general in nature .

Waynos will score 11 or 12 out of 10 on this, then go on to correct all the mistakes to the letter.

a reply to: thebozeian

There about 30 questions so he needs to score 32 .

You dont have much to beat mate .

a reply to: hutch622

Well the second quiz was easy. Got one wrong, some old flaming 4 prop thing turned out to be a passenger plane, npt a cargo plane. Didn't take any hints.

Started off alright in the 1st quiz but made a few bloopers late in the Q's/


Kind regards,

Adelaide based crab spotter mate.

27 of 34.....damn crew compliments and planes that never flew!

a reply to: hutch622

Isn't a "business" plane a "passenger" plane?

a reply to: hutch622

cool!!!

a reply to: hutch622

Number 24 in the second quiz is identified wrong I believe.
It say a-7 coursair but it an a-4 skyhawk

a reply to: thebozeian


You know me so well It reminded me of when we had our own quizzes on here

ETA, that first quiz is written by an imbecile! 34 out of 34 - but loads of luck, including trying to figure out what he meant to say and figuring out which wrong answer he thinks is right!! ie, many planes had pressure cabins before the B-29, but none of them are on the list!


On second quiz, it requires you to identify a cathay Cargo 747F as a passenger plane.

The Norwegian Dakota is a passenger plane, not a freighter and yes, 24 is an A-4, not an A-7

No 41 is very obviously an A300-600F, and yet is apparently a 'passenger plane'

Go tell it to the Marines



Very disappointing quiz that second one

Agreed on that Waynos. The wording was poorly chosen.

I need plans, specifications not quizzes dammit.

I usually start stuff like this, then by halfway I'm pulling my hair out so rage quit.

Thank you kindly I will look into this.

only did the first quiz as seems from others that the second one was inaccurate obviously the originator was Not the "sharpest crayon in the box"

32/34 but il admit the one about Russias biggest bomber was a complete guess

Just as a footnote, I recently got the "Luftwaffe Aviator watch".

First everybody said it won't last a week, but about four months later now and still going.
OK, needed a new battery, and not quite water-tight, but otherwise groovy.

But looked around - loads of guys wearing them!
Black, white - all dudes.
We love this memorabilia!

Although I must say - the German and Russian ones are sold out.
The Aussie and US stuff still on the shelf.
