Old Koreelah Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Yes Red you are correct. French planes may be ugly, but they did fly fairly well. Nothing wrong with jodells. Indeed! Jodels are so beautiful they make up for all the ugly ones! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Talking of ugly French aircraft, I came across this one... didn't realise the A380 wasn't the first French double-decker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 On checking your suggestion, I'll have to give it to you. The 3 view diagram is identical. I copied the image from Pinterest, where it was listed as a Heinkel 108. Here's another oldie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Tuncks Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 That project E looks like science-fiction.. gosh the aircraft designers had fun in those days. Are they fighter planes under the wing ready to be dropped from the mothership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 This is actually an interesting aircraft in that appears to be known by a number of names, It is registered as a Jihlavan Skylearder 200, but Google that and you get the Sabre and the Kappa Sova (which means Sabre anyway) as well. The Skyleader is a wider bodied development of the Sabre (Sova). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 That's right, PMcC Bruce, what have you got against the French? This plane was built in the US between 1928 and 1929. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmccarthy Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Image search is useless. It can tell a plane from a dog but that’s about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Image search is useless. It can tell a plane from a dog but that’s about it. Ha Ha. That's about right. Put up an image of a drifter, and it returns an Airbus or a helicopter. But I have occasionally found the exact image I searched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
