Restoration mysteries

[lefty]

What are these machines under repair/restoration ? Pretty easy, really...

The first one is a P-47 'Razorback', in the second photo next to the Fiat CR.42 I see a Bristol Beaufighter which is also in the third shot, and in the last I see a T-28 Trojan/Fennec and a Beech Mentor.

Well I thought the Fiat 'monoplane' might fox one or two, but hadn't reckoned on you pouncing, Ferry !

Right, of course, with one wee proviso - Beech Mentor ????? I think that is the other Fennec showing behind.

 

[Ferry_vO]

You are probably right Mike; the cockpit, flaps and wheels do look like a Mentor, but the Beech is considerably smaller than the T-28.

Did you take the photos yourself?

 

[lefty]

Yes I did - I can't aspire to your photographic prowess, but they are OK as long as they are static ! :mixedsmi:

I have lots more from Duxford -
