• 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.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Every time Ickie tinkers with the site, the method of attachment changes (as well as other things!)

If it ain't broke..........
 
No responses to Hurricane's teaser yet ? Looks like an Re2002 on a serious diet.....come on, guys.....
 
Very generous gesture to let poor old lefty back into the forum after his Soviet humiliation. (none of my pics of the Sukhoi have that big trunk thinggy...)

This big ugly heap is the Gourdou-Leseurre GL.821 second prototype.

Think they borrowed some design elements from the Eiffel Tower.........
 
OK, so I posted it before. Deja Vu meets Alzheimers meets Glenmorangie haze.... Go for it, men........
 
The REP C1 fighter from 1918 making an encore appearance. No worries Mike, we all have those moments.


What's this pudgy monoplane? Bit grainy isn't it?;)
 
Found it on a Russian aviation site. No mention of it at all in Putnam's Soviet Aircraft and Aviation 1917-1941.
 
Here's the Gribovskii from the Gunston tome..

and Hurricane's Mossie clone is, of course, the I.Ae. 24 Calquin.
 
You are both right, it is an I.Ae.24. Honours go to Lefty as the first poster.
:guinness:(or a marzen if you like)

The Gribovskii is a trim little ship. Thanks for posting the photo Lefty.
