Caproni-Vizzola C.22J, the last airplane built by Caproni and based on the Caproni A.21 Calif glider! I've seen one of those in a nearby museum!

[fallenphoenix1986 603]

It's a 1942 Peruvian Crop-Duster. The wings were split between fuel tanks and fertilizer spray.

Yeah, I've got that book too!

Nope!

 

Hmm... is it too difficult?

[+Gunrunner 314]

Apparently, yes... I don't have a clue except that it's from the mid-20's to early-30's and probably from Italy/Russia/France/Yugoslavia, based only on the design, beyond that and without cheating, no idea...

[Atreides 144]

Cheat (Predator Arnold voice) cmon do it, do it now...

[fallenphoenix1986 603]

No idea, thinking Russian though

 

Craig

[Dysko 93]

Yup, it's Russian!

[+Gepard 11,212]

Does this count ? Easy or far too vague ? If so let me know and can try to post something else. Dont have access to my books or mags for the cool stuff as reference since I'm in Dubai instead of home, Toronto.

 

Its the Alexejew I-215. This was an experimental fighter based on captured german design know how.

Further informations you find here:

Perhaps one early Horten Nurflügler design from Germany in the 30th or 40th like this:

What bugs me is the apparently circular shape of the wing, I'm sure I've read about that somewhere.

[+Gepard 11,212]

 

An other Horten Nurflügler called Ho Parabel

[Dysko 93]

Nope, as I said some posts above, it's a Russian airplane

[Dysko 93]

Looks like it's too difficult, so I'll reveal the answer... it's the Chyeranovskii BICh-14

[JediMaster 451]

Oh, I was JUST going to say that! Dammit!

[fallenphoenix1986 603]

Finally put out of my misery, thank you lol

That was vicious, good find, I can't remember ever reading about that one.

 

Who's next ?

 

In the meantime, after a far too hard one, let's have a far too easy one...

 

[Slartibartfast 153]

Easy one that GR its the Hawker Tornado...

[+Gunrunner 314]

Hey, I said it was far too easy... had nothing better in stock, we'll see if anyone comes up with something worthy of some head-scratching.

[Slartibartfast 153]

[Slartibartfast 153]

Good luck...
