The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Thanks Ferry. In researching the Russian, I found there were no less than five ways to spell it! (Gribovsky/Gribovskii/Gribovski/Gribovskiy/Gribovskji)

Here is something a little different. There are four types pictured here. Who can name all four?
 
The boat = Nord 1400/1402 Noirot
Two twins = Nord 2500/2501 Noratlas
4 eng = Bloch/SNCASE SE161 Languedoc
Trike = Breguet Br890H Mercure or Br891R Mars (too much grain!)
 
Sorry guys...

After I answered the last one I had:
1. grandkids over for the day
2. kids over (to reclaim the rug-rats) for daughter-in-law's b'day
3. sick wife who decided it was more than bad food
4. 6 hrs at the hospital to determine that she had appendecitis
5. a quick run to work until I could drag in a replacement
6. back to hospital to get her into/out of surgery
7. 3 hrs of sleep after 30 hrs of the above list

She's fine, I'm tired.. oh and dodging the bits of a Royal visit with stops a mile away (at the same hospital).. nice side of it is a sky full of Griffon helicopters and CF-18's over the last 24 hrs.

Glad someone leaped into the void... now what is that Beech Sierra-based trainer called... too tired to remember..
 
I'll second that Rob, but take care of yourself too !

In the meantime, the crafty Dutchman has posted one of those identikit trainers, similar models of which have been built in around 142 countries.................hmmm
 
Yes, take care of your wife and of yourself first Rob!

As for the aircraft; it was designed on one continent but is used on two others... And it's not based on a Beech.
