• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I'm quite sure that there must have been "some" lookers now. :very_drunk:

So, time for a clue :wavey:

She was one of the failed military aircrafts produced in the Soviet Union (that's why I wrote "Ochi Tchiornie" [my transliteration is terrible]) in the middle twenties and she's to be found in the net...
If nothing comes up by Tomorrow morning I'll let you know....

My best guess looking at a drawing is:
Kolpakov-Miroshnichenko LB-2LD

Absolutely right Cthornburg!:applause:
The Kolpakov-Miroshnichenko LB-2LD or 2B-L1 (plus almost half a dozen more designations as customary with russian aircrafts) built 1924 and tested 1925 with two engines FIAT (according to some sources) or Liberty (according to other sources). More information can be found on alternate history.
Your turn please!

Hi Chris:encouragement:
A heavy modification of the Piper PA-25 Pawnee by Argentine firm of LAVIASA. Am not sure about name, but I call it the LAV-51-235 Super Master. The Pawnee was modified into a tandem two-seat trainer and I believe at one time the Argentina AF was considering an order as T-34 Mentor replacement.
