Pominaus Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Grob 115 Tutor, but the one in the back has got me stumped! Haha, ah too easy! Good job man, yeah that back one... some kind of early Jab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Perry Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Well, I'll preface this by warning that I'm one of the worst plane identifiers going (once painted a model typhoon the wrong design because I didn't notice the image I looked up was a tempest until I was half way through), but, what the heck... I'm gonna guess it's a BF109G?Specific version, no clue, but what the heck, swing and a miss... BF109G-1? lol The bloke who sent me that pic is a WW2 aviation historian. He agrees with YOU Sir. ( That geek has probably got the damn serial number from the factory ! ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotax618 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Professor Ed Lesher built the aircraft, it is a Lesher Teal. It was built to break FAI speed and distance records. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Koreelah Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I just looked it up, and it sure is impressive. Retracting the main wheels required 18 separate actions by Lesher (who was the only one qualified to fly it). Looks like they swung forward to rest just behind the pilot. I bet he designed a method of nudging the wheels out it there was a fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
