red750 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I'm retired and in quarantine, so I've got time on my hands. Yes the Skyrocket. This one might be a tad more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Well with that level of good looks ... and the italian airforce roundel - its an italian prototype. I recall seeing it in a flying magazine from back in the 1950's and think its called the sagitarius but without googling can't remember who built it or if thats the actual name May I google??

Thruster88 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 No picture for this one, got the words from Facebook. Best all rounder hands down. Fast, efficient, near perfect control harmony and response, decent short field performance, low maintenance. Aerobatic plus the sample size is huuuge so your flying something well known tried and true!! So what is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Looks like picking old aircraft is no way to trick you, so how about this newer one? I have a feeling it might go quickly as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Student Pilot Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I usually go on memory, haven't seen that one. Looks like a metal version of a Cirrus or something it was based on. Just had a close look at the photo, looks like it's in Australia at Latrobe Valley. Has a bit of a Gippsland Aero look to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Student Pilot Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Fokker derivative? Ford produced his own copies after inspecting a Fokker, only his were all metal I believe. The tail/fin in that photo looks very Ford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Student Pilot Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Had a close look, it looked Italian so I googled Caproni, came up with similar aircraft but not the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Time to name the highwing metal plane - it's a Hamilton H-47. Let's try this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
