Title: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on October 24, 2011, 06:38:36 pm
Hi!

I though we needed some more 'intelligent' threads (hint at counting ;) ), so this is a great excuse for some thinking :D

A simple game:
I post a picture of a plane (or a part). You try to guess it. The first to guess right gets to post the next picture. Happy guessing! :D

SAAB 340?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on October 26, 2011, 05:03:50 pm
No, I don't think so; it has (had) four engines, two on each wing. You can see the things sticking out of the leading edge.

The windows are also triangular, like on the Caravelle. Maybe it's from the 60's? Or even 70's?

SAAB 340?

No. It could only carry slight less than half the number of passengers of a SAAB 340.

I have no idea. No idea at all. 50's? 60's?

Correct, designed in the late 50s, first flight in the early 60s.

No, I don't think so; it has (had) four engines, two on each wing. You can see the things sticking out of the leading edge.

Correct

The windows are also triangular, like on the Caravelle. Maybe it's from the 60's? Or even 70's?

The designer was a close friend with Marcel Dassualt, who played an important role in the Caravelle. They went to the same aviation school, and cooperated on a number of designs, which is why they share many similarities...
Mikhail Gurevich (co-founder of MiG) and Henry Coanda were also friends and schoolmates of the designer of this plane.

I got it! Weeee! It's the Potez 840! :D :D :D

Let's have a history class:

Henry Potez attended Supaero (the aviation school in france) in 1911 together with Henry Coanda and Raul Badin. In 1919 he founded Aviations Potez and bought Allesandro Azani in 1923. Potez built small passenger aircraft during the mid-war years, together with some reconnaissance biplanes.

In 1933 the French aviation industry was nationalized and Potez' factories were handed over to SNCASE. After World War II, Henry Potez re-established the company as Société des Avions et Moteurs Henry Potez. Again, it produced small passenger airplanes, but did never get its old reputation back. When the last aircraft failed to sell (Potez 840), he closed the company. Sud-Aviation bought the remains in 1967.

I'll have the next aircraft up soon. You want an easy one, or a hard one?

PS: I'll just leave the proof here :) Link (http://www.airliners.net/photo/0984883/L/)

Haha, it's an Antonov A-40.

At the start of the war the Russians wanted a way of getting tanks onto the battlefield quickly, so they came up with the tank/glider hybrid. However the vision of gracefully gliding a tank into war never quite happened and so the project was cancelled in 1942.

Don't be silly, there is only one Atlantique, the Breguet Atlantique ;) And it's the finest ASW aircraft in the world ;) :-*

From the view you gave us, there is no way to say if it is an ATL 1 or ATL 2. But it is definetily not an ATL 3 ;)

Well done Virgin Serbia it is an A380. The wheels on the A380 are slightly closer together than on the A340, also the A380s wheels are further forward in relation to the wing than on the A340. Well spotted Matias, you could see the inner wheel reflection (but what you saw wasn't a centre wheel but an inner/fuselage wheel reflection).

Got ya. I had a feeling that people were trying to cheat this way, so I put in a litte distraction ;) :lol:

I suppose you win, but the correct term is JL-9 Mountain Eagle or JJ-7B. FTC-2000 was only used for marketing purposes for a short period several years ago.

About the aircraft:
The Guizhou JL-9 / JJ-7B / JJ-9 Mountain Eagle/Plateau Eagle emerged as the winner of the Peoples Liberation Army Air Force trainer competition. The aircraft is loosely based on the JJ-7, itself a copy of the MiG-21U Mongol. It retains the same engine, rear fuselage, tail and rear control surfaces of the MiG-21, but features entirely new double-delta wings and a "hard" nose section with a proper radar. It also features a glass cockpit and an Italian SELEX Grifo S7 radar. It can presumably carry BVR missiles.
The JL-9 has also begun entering service with the Peoples Liberation Army Navy Air Force, and a modified version featuring an all-new and much taller tail fin, stretched landing gear and a new and much more powerful turbofan will be used onboard the carrier PLAN Shi Lang. The carrierborne JL-9J will also feature divertless air intakes, allowing it to supercruise at mach 1.6. A prototype has even been spotted carrying conformal fuel tanks. Not bad for what essentially started as a MiG-21 back in 1954 8)

 :lol: :lol:

The PS-90 has a very unique shape, and is only fitted en-mass to the Il-96, Tu-204/214 and Il-76MD-90. It's not an Il-76 for obvious reasons, and the nacelle on the Tu-204/214 family doesn't have a notch right behind the exhaust.

They have the same fuselage, right?

Nope. The top half is identical (passenger lobe), the cargo area below the passenger cabin is different. The 737 has the smallest cargo area of the 3, the 707 has the largest.

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Does that look like a GE CF-6 to you? I also need the specific variant in order to give it to you.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 08, 2011, 08:59:42 pm
GE CF-6? Nope, more like RR Trent 700. So being an A330, there are two possibilities. Either the -200 or -300.

Now I see it! It's a CFM-56, so I guess it's an A340-300 based on the fact that she has a gap in the window line.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Med Air on November 09, 2011, 06:06:57 pm
Yes it is the A340-300. Other than the engine and the window gap, it was an Air France aircraft and they only operate the -300 series.

Are you sure it's not one of -15's, like Su-15T, or -24 (M,MK,M2,MP, etc)?
If not... Well, was it mass-produced, or just a prototype?

Mass produced. It was sort of a Super Flagon (Su-15). Last one retired in 1996.

Huh, looks like I've missed Tupolevs at Rossiya... What a fail...
And a green one is Yakovlev UT-2. I had a feeling, that I've seen that photo before - and here it is!

Since there is a proof - let me continue.

Mathias wins! Photo is taken in the Danish National Aviation Museum in Stauning. Most planes at that museum, the KZ-VII inkluded, are still flyable.

Dreamdevil, to post a picture you need to upload it to a site such as photobucket.com, then copy-paste the IMG code to the forum.

You have to find a link to the image on the internet, e.g. http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l405/skoleboss/la.png

Then you have to enclose the link in these brackets:

That's an experimental modification of MiG-23 - 23PD. Failed pretty much, cause of these additional engines, needed for VTOL. The airplane could fly for roughly 15 minutes and had no retractable gear) After a few flights it was abandoned.

I've never thought that some country in Africa would ever build a plane.

The South Africans have mastered the technique of building 1st class aircraft long ago. They were set back in 1994 though, but the white population has begun starting private companies instead of state owned companies, so they are catching up again.

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Virgin Serbia on January 24, 2012, 09:44:49 pm
Bump. Hard?

Well it was made to take off vertically. Made. In theory it didn't really work out, so they offered it as a conventional alternative to the F-16 or F-18 instead. The nose is from an A-4 Skyhawk, the intakes are from an F-4 Phantom. It is powered by a variant of the P&W F-100 fitted to F-16s and F-15s.

Well, the only connection between this and submarine is pressuarisation. It was very good for 30s

I just don't know.

Heheh, mission complete :)
OK, It was BOK-15. A little bit of history
In 1937 after series of succesful transpolar flights, in USSR lots of pilots wanted to get some more flight records, and Stalin allowed to make one flight outside USSR in 1939. A new airplane was ordered, which would be able to fly for 20 000 km (~11 000 nm) on altitude around 10 000 meters (~33 000 feet). In may 1938 Chizhevsky agreed to make this plane, but diesel engines were either too heavy or too fuel-consuming. Kerosene-burning engines were even more fuel-consuming. As result, the maximum distance of the flight was around 15 000 km (~8 000 nm), which was just not much enough. In january 1939 Kaganovich said to Stalin that Chizhevsky was not loyal enough, and delayed BOK-15 on purpose, which resulted in Chizhevsky's arrest next month. In october 1939 one finished airplane made it's first and the only test-flight, and all the BOK programme was cancelled due to war and previous fails.
VS, should I keep such airplanes coming onto this thread?) And who will post since I can see no rules about not guessed airplanes :D

The plane is from the cold-war era. It was very popular. And yes, the mirror is supposed to be there. It helps the pilot know if the truck is done loading the plane.

No it isn't. The 10 passenger thing is more of a post-apocalyptic thing. BTW, it has a vertical cargo area. It can perform tasks such as firebombing, hijacking of vehicles, close air support, watering of fields, seeding, medical evacuation, crop dusting, transporting passengers, emergency evacuation, aerial surveying etc.

That's not a widebody.

The aircraft you haven't guessed yet is no longer in commercial service. It was known for having built-in airstair for the passengers. Passengers would enter the cargo area of the plane from the airstairs, carrying their own luggage. They would then deposit it, and walk up the stairs onto the passenger deck.

19.5 out of 20. We had to guess the aircraft type and the nationality of the airline. The only one I failed was a photo of an E190 from a newly started airline in Norway that I have never heard of before. The aircraft was registered in the Netherlands too.

Yes it was indeed! I guessed India. The livery looked like a cheap indian airline.

You can only guess on one aircraft ;)

What was your score?

19.5 out of 20. We had to guess the aircraft type and the nationality of the airline. The only one I failed was a photo of an E190 from a newly started airline in Norway that I have never heard of before. The aircraft was registered in the Netherlands too.

You mean Fly NonStop?

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Virgin Serbia on August 31, 2013, 02:17:26 pm
Why was it put aside? And when?

They were purchased and put aside/scrapped in 2007 as a cheap source for spare parts. The landing gear, some of the cockpit windows, practically all the cockpit instruments and most seats have been removed/put in flyable planes. Somebody told me that the altimeter alone costs up to 50.000 kr. when new. The engines cost between 200.000 and 300.000 kr when new. Each. A full set of new windows will easily cost you 18.000 kr.

Or you can buy a secondhand plane of this type containing all those functioning parts for just 150.000 kr.

Some of those other cars are obviously Hindustan Ambassadors though, meaning that it must be one of those experimental Indian designs drawn by Kurt Tank, the famous german designer of Focke-Wulf.

Guess this one. Extra points for guessing the flight level. Hint: It was the lowest possible FL, and it was a VFR flight.

Flight levels begin a 3000 feet ;) Additionally, FL's 30, 35, 50, 55 etc. go east, while FL 40, 45, 60, 65 etc. go west.

I also told you that VFR flights are the ones that end with 5, and that FLs start at 3000 ft ;) And that even FLs always go west ;)

BTW, location is spot on. Over Forlev actually.

Thanks. I took it myself as I was cruising along in rather steady conditions. I propped the camera up on the edge of the dashboard. It really is a nice photo, as it shows how small Denmark really is. You can actually see all the way to Jutland in this photo, and I was barely 1.4 km up. It was more impressive on the return trip, when I cruised at FL55. I could see coast on the far side of Jutland, all the way to Sweden on the far side of Seeland! Odense to Roskilde took me 35 minutes that day.

Will you use the cheat and win the million kr or don't use the holy Encyclopedia Wikipedia and possibly lose the million and having to settle down with the hundred thousand kroner prize, also known as the "almost made it and was too unintelligent to get the moula"-prize? The decision is yours. Just don't think that the elephant is smaller than the moon.

Okay okay, that hint might not have worked so well then. So here comes some more facts:

It is a twin-seat jet trainer, and the Luftwaffe doesn't operate it. Furthermore, it was designed in the early 70s.

The elephant is bigger than the moon depending on where you stand relative the moon.

Ahh, but rule number 47 explicitly states that you gain an extra point for guessing the sportscar, if one is present. But only 1 point is available for sportscars, even if multiple sportscars are present. Only 1 person can get that 1 point.

Because the Danish CAA (Civil Aviation Administration) requires me to do it. And it really sucks, because they are removing the requirement from next year (2015), meaning that I will be among the last pilots ever to learn morse.

I'd guess some military aircraft. A Soviet one? Wait. Is it the registration over there? 82046? Definitely Russian. Now, Googeling would be cheating :P But as far as I know, the only current Russian transporter with a rear ramp is the Ilyushin 76. Am I right? :D
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: norge on January 26, 2015, 05:47:09 pm
Good guess, but not quite correct. It's a Soviet though! :D
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Virgin Serbia on January 26, 2015, 07:12:44 pm
Only the An-225 does not have a tail ramp. Judging from the size, it is either an An-22, An-124 or Il-76. It's not an Il-76, and those red things are covers for a jet engine, leaving only the An-124. The crane is a dead giveaway, that particular model is only found in the big Antonovs. The An-22 also has no padding/isolation on the walls, and the hold of that one is painted blue on the bottom and yellow on the top.

Now, how do I know that it's the rear ramp, and not the front ramp, which is identical on both the An-124 and An-225, and looks/operates very much like the rear ramp? Well, the An-124 has stairs leading to the upper deck in the rear and front of the main cargo deck. The front stairs are parallel with the fuselage, the rear stairs are perpendicular to the fuselage. Therefore, this photo shows the rear ramp on an An-124.

Piper Cherokee PA-28-140
I think.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Virgin Serbia on January 31, 2015, 12:11:02 pm
I concur, that looks unmistakeably like an early Warrior, most likely a -140. Speak of a horrible plane, never going to voluntarily fly one of those again.

It could be a -180, -150 and even a -160 though. The square windows and short cargo hold are a characteristic of early Warriors, rather than the -140. So early -180s had square windows too. It could even be an Arrow, although I have yet to see one that doesn't feature the third window in the hold.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Pratt and Whitney PW 4000 engine, 3 or more landing gear struts, a 747 pylon. Me thinks it's a 747-400.

Hmm, I am pretty sure it's a 747 engine pylon. And a P&W logo on the engine. Therefore it must be a 747-100/-200/-300/SP that has been modified. Pratt's 747SP engine testbed?

Those engines are way too old for it to be an A380. Wrong engine type for the A340 too. Same for Il-86, Il-96, 707, P-1, DC-8, Convair 880, Convair 990, DH Comet, Nimrod, Y-10, Il-62, VC-10, Tu-114, Tu-144 and Concorde. It can only be a 747.

Ahh, the Il-96M. I didn't know that they ever got round to making one of those with western engines. It was rebuilt to Il-96-400T status as RA-96101 using PS-90 engines, which is why I didn't realise it at first.  On an interesting note, 96101 is currently undergoing conversion into an Airborne Command Post with airborne refueling capability (receiver and giver) for the Russian Government.

OK, so this one might appear difficult because it is such a close-up.
But it could be fairly easy though, because it is so emblematic...

Good luck!

Sorry, perhaps my posting was a bit too vague. Here are some clues:

* European Manufacturer
* The aircraft saw both military & civilian use
* Swissair was an operator of this aircraft
* Period : 1930's and 40's

Hope that helps to solve this mystery!

Please also recommend some good sites where good photos can be found to post here. Thanks!
In the meantime, maybe you should post a picture first, to give other players something to do.

You guys are good!

Although I worked several airshows when i was a teen (my Mom worked there), I was never much interested in military aircraft. Some are truly fascinating to look at, but the nature of what they are built for is what always put me off.

So I'll have to pass on this one, but I'll keep an eye on the result, and on this thread which is fun.

Take care....

This will be a new one, with two photos of the same aircraft. Two photos i took today from my window of an aircraft that was cruising at 37000ft, flying by a zone which is 60km +/- away from where i am, Good visibility and clear skies allowed me to took the photos. In one you can identify the company and in the other you can guess the aircraft (i guess so...)

I agree with the A318. It has A320 wings and winglets and the distinct enlarged tail (enlarged because of stability issues due to its smaller size compared to the A320). And I did not even peek at Google for this one. Perhaps it is because the recent pictures are all Airbus :P.

I have already taken a look at your very interesting pictures, Johnny :).Thanks for voting!

The boeing 717 has the same width as the DC-9 and MD-80/90 which is a 3+2 seating arrangement :)
(just like the Fokker 70/100)

I would guess BAe ATP?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Anzatax on August 22, 2017, 11:12:40 am
Sorry, Matias. It is the 717 :P.

Must be a special arrangement in this picture, I guess. I've searched the Internet, and this seating layout seems to be a possibility for the Boeing 717.

Here's a picture to prove it:
(http://www.aviationexplorer.com/airline_aircraft_seat_maps/midwest-airlines-seat-charts-map-layout/midwest_airlines_boeing717-seating-map.gif)

Use Google's search image function to see if I am right. This seems to be a Southwest seating chart for the 717.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on August 23, 2017, 09:55:47 am
Are you sure? Because it seems like there are open doors at the rear galley, and that's not possible in the 717

In addition, you may wish to check out this website for more confirmation: Delta Airlines Boeing 717 Seat Map (https://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Delta_Airlines/Delta_Airlines_Boeing_717.php).

They don't have complete 2+2 seating, though.

It's not a control surface that's used during normal flight circumstances - i.e. it's not the standard elevons.

DC-9 series? MD-90?

And I guess that it is the trailing edge of an engine pylon ;). Good one, Matias!
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on September 02, 2017, 03:41:31 am
I've been told that this picture is the only one in existence of this control surface in operation. It's used because the engines on the MD-90 are heavier than onthe MD-80, so in case of a nose up-attitude stall these will push the nose back down

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on October 15, 2017, 12:26:08 pm
Ok, let's collect all the clues:

It flew in the fifties, only one was ever constructed, it was based on an existing aircraft of which many flew, it was experimental (and unsuccessful), was American, propeller aircraft and had something that could be detached from the aircraft on the ground (not bombs or small parts, something really big). The principle (the big detachable thing) is kind of in use in some huge helicopters today which look really weird when they don't have the big box singe it's just a cockpit and the engine left.

So to remain in biplanes...

This one might not be easy so I'll give you a hint : developed during WWI but built and flown only after the war. Around 1,500 of this model were built!

Actually the SPAD is a pretty good guess, Anzatax, but no cigar...

OK it was a bit too difficult, I'm sorry. It was the Nieuport-Delage NiD-29.

So let's try a different one...

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on March 05, 2018, 07:33:14 am
Nope, not quite...

Although this aircraft does indeed have the look and probably the feel of a Cessna 152, it is not a Cessna 152.

It is a US based manufacturer. They are usually able to configure their aircraft in amphibious mode, or as in this picture with skis.

Any other guesses?

How popular is it?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on March 05, 2018, 03:08:36 pm
From what I can see, 474 of this particular aircraft type were built between 1963 and 1983.

It's a small manufacturer, which still produces aircraft to this very day. Based in the US state of Georgia.

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on March 06, 2018, 04:11:48 pm
Well it's a bit difficult to answer about the popularity of the aircraft.
Its a small manufacturer, and they produced 2,500 aircraft in their first 50 years of business, and they are continuing to build them.

A slightly newer version than the one pictured here (but also with the skis!) is one of the DEFAULT aircraft in FSX (Steam) but you would need the Deluxe edition of it.

I had a different name in mind, but Wren 460 is accepted. I think it's also called the Petersen Wren 260SE, but close enough. :)

Essentially a turbocharged Cessna with a canard for very STOL operations (stall speed is 20 kts or something)

It's not a well known manufacturer. To be honest, I don't even think this aircraft is in the game - or the manufacturer
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on March 27, 2018, 09:32:13 pm
Well I typed "East German Aircraft manufacturers" in Google, and the first result it comes up with is the Baade 152.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baade_152

Built & tested in Dresden (which is a surprisingly beautiful -and historically emotional- city that I went to visit about 2 years ago).

As per the Wiki page, only 3 flying prototypes were built, which would indeed make that photograph of yours a rare sight.

Is that the aircraft?

I know some CRJs can seat 50 or more, but that wouldn't be this model. I think this model just has 2 single rows with 1 stewardess. I'm just about 6 feet tall and I have to lower my head so I don't hit the ceiling. Lol. These are regional jets, and for good cause....you wouldn't want to fly medium-long flights in this cabin.

Hi guys,

Metallurgy : yes most definitely at 6 ft you would bump your head in this one!
Inside, the cabin is turned into a full ICU unit like in a hospital. Can carry one stretcher patient + doctor & nurse, and if the patient's medical condition is not critical, at times one accompanying person. A tight fit indeed!
It is not a CRJ, but there is a connection...

Ooh, looks like an old jetliner! Are those three windows all emergency escape exits?

The handlebar for the center window seems to have been broken off! :D
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on May 20, 2018, 12:43:29 am
Yes, it's an old jetliner. They would all be emergency escapes, yes. The first versions of this aircraft did not have this shape of windows though.

The three emergency escapes actually put me off a bit, but for an aircraft that did not have round windows in previous versions, the Comet really stands out :lol:

"CCCP" is the Soviet registration, but I have never seen anything like it.

Can hardly believe it flies. Are those floaters of sorts it has on the bottom? or are they massive fuel tanks?

The Russians are incredible when it comes to aeronautics. They created the world's largest aircraft long before the jet engine came along, and continued to design gigantic aircraft. Their problem (I think) is that they focus more on military aircraft rather than civilian ones, making their airliners less efficient compared to American and European, while having some of the world's best fighters. Also, their aircraft are usually very ugly :/

Exactly what I was initially going to say!

I think it is actually a Aviation Traders ATL-98 Carvair, a conversion of the DC-4 by Freddie Laker and his company,  Freddie Laker's Aviation Traders (Engineering) Limited, to replace the aging, small-payload Bristol Freighter. They do look alike, but the Carvair could carry more cars than the Bristol Freighter (they were real "car-go" aircraft ;))

Don't think it ever entered service, would say it looks like a Bleriot 125, but, I can't remember the front end looking like that, and I can't see the 2nd prop/engine on the back of the 1st.

BAe 146 aka Avro RJ ?

No, it is larger than that.

I don't think all of the engi running
I meant to say that not all of the engines are running

A high mounted wing?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 07, 2018, 07:40:12 am
Nope, normal wing. It's been in production for many decades (in several different versions)
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on November 07, 2018, 09:38:44 pm
OK I'll try again :)

Ilyushin Il-96 ?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 08, 2018, 02:36:50 am
It's been in production longer than the Il-96 (if including all variations)
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on November 09, 2018, 12:29:25 pm
OK so I was tempted to say the Il-76, but since it's not a high-mounted wing, that doesn't work.

With little conviction then I'll suggest it is the Il-86?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 10, 2018, 07:49:26 pm
Correct number of engines, also technically correct number of passenger accessible levels :)

OK OK, any chance its an Airbus A340 then?

4 engines. A340 capacity. Is it from North America?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 18, 2018, 06:52:04 pm
4 engines, but let me help you: The picture in question actually depicts one with five engines. Closer to A340-600 capacity than any other A340 ;)

I don't know much about airliners. Light aircraft are more my line. So here's my guess. 747-100?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 19, 2018, 01:42:42 pm
I'll take that - it's a Qantas 747 transporting an extra engine to a stranded Qantas 747

The first 707 doing its famous barrel roll?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on November 26, 2018, 04:40:23 pm
Technically the 707 never did any barrel rolls (as far as I know) ;)
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Anzatax on November 27, 2018, 04:37:29 am
I think on its maiden flight the test pilot did a barrel roll for the sake of showing off the aircraft to spectators, and scaring the CEO of Boeing half dead :D

Maybe it is the 367 Dash-80 prototype?

This video should be some proof, and it has the black and white version of your photo Matias ;)

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on March 26, 2019, 01:20:38 pm
If you want to post an image, the easiest way is to use the image code:
Code: [Select]
[img]Image URL[/img]
For example, for my image:
Code: [Select]
[img]https://i.redd.it/gqkm88j0nsn21.jpg[/img]
You can insert any image URL between the img tags
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Hi there PoCichuuu, and a warm welcome to Airline Mogul and the forum! Good job with that guess as well, that really was fast!

Is the new plane a Transall C-160?

I'm sure I saw a prototype/concept of that engine mentioned at Cranfield once. Apparently it can be quite efficient but disastrous if the engine failed!
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Anzatax on April 12, 2019, 09:20:45 pm
I read somewhere about that engine before, and that got me started. Then I realized through Wikipedia that there had been two stages to the development of this engine, so therefore the MD may not be the only plane. The 727 livery then fit perfectly with your photo :P

New picture coming up soon!

B or C90 ? or 100....

-200 and -250 series should have upper rear tailwings, that one doesn't have it.
If not Twin Engine Baron 58, then either -90 or -100 series.

Nope, it's a civilian aircraft, however a military version is also possible, but surely not a combat one.

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on April 29, 2019, 10:58:04 am
I first thought of the Beech Starship since it's in AM and has oddly placed engines. But it wasn't popular. Then I looked for similar aircraft and the P180 was there - in AM and had military operators. A tough one indeed!

Here is my picture:

Cocpit looks like late 80s ?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on April 29, 2019, 02:14:37 pm
Yes, it's military. It has since been upgraded with modern avionics.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: PoCichuuu on April 29, 2019, 03:14:37 pm
It reminds me some cockpit from FSX, when I was playing this simulator some time ago...
But I uninstalled this simulator due to lack of time some like a year ago and can't compare ;) ;)

If it is a military, with two seats, the conclusion must be - a bomber or a kind of transport a/c.

B2 ?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

- fixed landing gear, impossible to hide it under wings.

I can give you a hint: It is an S-duct, but smaller than a 727
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Scotia Air on May 05, 2019, 04:43:06 pm
I think this should be named "Guess the Aircraft for the mechanics only". Who gives a damn how many ducts it has or the shape. The majority of Aviation enthusiasts look at aircraft not obscure parts. Will i send in a photo of a tyre and get you to guess it?
Come on be realistic.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: PoCichuuu on May 05, 2019, 06:02:48 pm

I can give you a hint: It is an S-duct, but smaller than a 727

Ok, if smaller than 727 then it MUST be Dassault Falcon. But forgive me, I can't tell you if it's -900 or -7X  or -50 version, as I can't see it from that photo :P ;)

Hawker Trident / Tupolew / or L1011 Tristar are more or less the same/bigger than 727. I don't know any other tri-jet aircrafts :)

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Oh come on!!!! How the hell are the majority of aviation enthusiasts meant to get this??? If I win any I'll send a photo of a landing light and ask you to name that aircraft.
Yeah, Isn't this called "Name the Aircraft"? not guess the aircraft from some obscure part.

I think that hints here are the point.
When you look in such a photo you can see that something is "strange" - you see a part of jet engine but in a kind of "reverted" view. Then you can deduct that it must either be an APU or a third engine inlet. You can't get into APU, so it must be a s-duct of a tri-jet aircraft. From thins point it's easier :)

If we want to guess aircrafts only by photos of the exterior, and mainly looking at a hull, cabin, or wing, we can finish this "contest" after, let's say 1000 posts :)

Come on. Use your "sherlock's" mind and try to guess by getting as many hints as possible - like with my PZL.23 plane before ;)
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: PoCichuuu on May 05, 2019, 10:09:15 pm
Is my answer correct and enough ? Or are you still willing to guess the proper version of the aircraft, that this s-duct belongs to ?  :P
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on May 06, 2019, 08:17:52 am
Oh, I didn't see your guess! Yeah, that's good enough, anything more precise than a Dassault Falcon would just be guessing. It is a Falcon 900

US Military jet transport? C-5 Galaxy?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: PoCichuuu on May 29, 2019, 08:45:31 pm
Aft door depicted here are rather too small to be for C-5 comparing to rest parts of the picture.
Besides, C-5 doesn't have outlet/inlet pipe on the top of wing-foundation part.

I would go rather for some turboprop.
C-130 ?

It is a military transport, but it is not American. And it is a turbo prop.

Random guess: F15?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on June 30, 2019, 07:43:13 am
Your random guess is absolutely correct.

F-15E "Strike Eagle" - US Air Force

Thrust : 25,000 - 29,000 lbs each engine
Speed: 1,875 mph (around Mach 2,5)
Manufacturer: McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing)
Crew: 2

Up to you, Matias!
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on June 30, 2019, 10:21:56 am
The intake looked familiar, but I don't know many military aircraft. That was a lucky one, I guess!

Here's my challenge: Not the big aircraft, but the smaller one inside (bonus points if you get both right though)

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on July 07, 2019, 07:42:52 pm
That single blade propeller is throwing me for a loop.

Is it an older fighter that only saw combat in the initial stages of the war?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!

Any hint?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Anzatax on July 25, 2019, 05:28:40 am
Sorry sorry sorry :P. I totally forgot about this for some time :(

A more obvious hint: it never saw combat or anything because 1) it is a prototype and 2) it was a total failure. However, the lessons learned from this aircraft were later used to create one of the most iconic and powerful fighters of WWII.

Supermarine 224?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Anzatax on July 28, 2019, 06:05:36 am
Yup, you guessed it!

The Type 224 was designed by R. J. Mitchell, who had designed quite a number of racing aircraft to win the Schneider trophy. However, for some reason the Type 224 was a massive failure. Mitchell managed then to go on and design the Spitfire - a truly amazing aircraft. Hard to imagine, eh? :D

I never get these right, but since the replies are slow at the moment, I'll give it a wild guess: Antonov 22?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: StephenM on December 01, 2019, 03:14:57 pm
Definitely looks Russian. With the lower cockpit windows I’m gonna say IL76?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on December 02, 2019, 07:59:59 am
It's big. Compared to other similar equipment, this one might even be the biggest

An225?  :D
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on December 03, 2019, 11:34:03 pm
No, it has two AI-136 engines - Russian
EDIT: No, it has four Soloviev D-25, sorry!

Ah so it's a helicopter?

Mil V-12 (NATO: Homer) ?

Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on December 04, 2019, 08:26:41 pm
Mil-12 is correct, yes! World's largest helicopter (Russians were insane)

737?

Nope. Not built in the United States.

Sukhoi Superjet?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on December 11, 2019, 05:24:16 pm
As regards aircraft size, you are getting a little closer to guessing.
As regards country of production, you are getting a little further from guessing.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on December 11, 2019, 09:55:20 pm
Embraer E2 jet?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on December 12, 2019, 11:43:57 am
That's correct. E190 to be precise.

Sorry for being a bit late. This should be an easy one
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on December 16, 2019, 11:06:21 am
No rush...

A350, I think, because of the unmistakable raccoon "eyes" ?
If not my second guess would be the A330 neo.
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on December 16, 2019, 01:45:09 pm
Yeah, A350 is correct

WWII US bomber, maybe a B17? A wild guess
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: Thunderstruck on December 22, 2019, 12:22:39 am
It's indeed a WWII U.S. bomber, but not the Flying Fortress, and not a Boeing.
By the end of the war, nearly 10,000 of these aircraft were built (counting all variants).

They were built in plants in California and Kansas, if that can serve as a clue.

B25 :D

Yes that's the one, Mitchell B-25, manufactured by North American Aviation.

Did this contraption actually fly in the real world?
Title: Re: Guess the aircraft!
Post by: 1993matias on January 04, 2020, 12:46:15 am
It did lift off from the surface it was resting upon, yes. This technology led to one of the largest flying machines ever made, the principles used in this kind of craft is also used in some fast boats.

Post by: WethereX on January 20, 2020, 08:51:51 am
Those Russians and their crazy Erkanoplan's, this is a very early Alekseev SM-1.

Yes, correct! Now it's your turn to post some aircraft for us to guess

I blame(?) Discord, which has worked really well but re-enforced the death of traditional forums.
