Can't tell you the country, cause it would be too easy then :)

That's hint enough for me! It's the PZL.23

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.

It's too easy to guess if it's just a picture of the aircraft ;)

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

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.

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 :)

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 ;)

That, and by being able to sort through hundreds of Wikipedia articles on aircraft ;)

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

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

Your turn

OK then.

An easy one, I suppose.

My first thought was DC-5, but that wasn't a tail-dragger.
