Sturdee Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 We have recently come back from holiday in the UK and Russia, we were in my wife's home town and my son took me down to a new WW2 display, it had some tanks and anti-aircraft guns with placards telling us all about the equipment, in Russian by the way, but the aircraft in the photo was just added to the display and did not have a placard erected yet to tell us what it was and it's history.Anyone know what type of aircraft it is, looks to me to be a plane from the late 1930's, anyone know it?David[ATTACH=full]37187[/ATTACH] An2 give it a wide berth if departing behind, it produces a huge vortices. Huge beast with the radial engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Very close, in fact I think it's pretty much a rip-off. The manufacturer makes parts for Cessna, Piper, Taylorcraft, and was started in the 60's by two brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 HITC, I refer to your post #417 on page 21 about the shadow of the U2. Looking through some old photos, I came across this Google satellite view of Moorabbin Airport showing a helicopter with its blades rotating. You can see the time lapse between the red, green and blue shutter exposures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
