The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Moses03, I am (almost) certain it is a Savoia-Marchetti, but am not sure on the SM-number
It is time for me to start studying the pre-1945 types.
 
It is the SM-84!
Stupid, stupid, stupid me. I even posted the same photo on 1000aircraftphotos.com :isadizzy:

If I am right, I'll have a juicy twin boomer to go next
 
A cold one for Wout. :icon29: Interesting in that there was another Savoia-Marchetti SM.84- the twin tail bomber that was supposed to be an improvement over the SM.79 but was a failed effort for the most part.

Over to you-
 
Moses03, :applause::applause::medals:
I started saving to buy you a whole bar, a beer is just not enough
BTW, thanks for the nice picture
 
Moses03, you're mean!
My guess it is the KHai-20 of the Kharkovskii Aviatsionni Institut, a two-seat version of the better known one-man KHai-17.
 
Hello everybody - just got back from holiday. Wish I hadn't.
Last night the Boss switched on her laptop to find it had died. Off to PC World for a new Vaio (she's paying!)
Later on, booted up my PC, an hour later - crash. New motherboard ordered today. I really don't believe this. Thank heavens for my handy netbook on which this is being posted.
As you know, these things happen in threes, and right enough, whilst on my folding three-step ladder to get a box from the high shelf, decided to descend on the side of the ladder without steps.
On the way down, grabbed a bookshelf, which duly collapsed, and ended up in a heap covered in components and assorted Putnam tomes.
A rude word , gentlemen, escaped the Lefty lips.
I may catch up with you all at a later date. Until then, I'll just *** quietly.....
 
Lefty, I sympathize with you. Be honest, only ONE rude word?
Your story reminds me to stop cursing at my PC.

This one is for our heli lovers. Not a homebuilt, but from a well established manufacturer
 
Computers....pfftt! Headline in tomorrow's Fife daily newspaper; "Local Man Felled By Putnams"

Welcome back Mike.
 
Not sure on this one. But brain isn't working right now, Whirlwind rollout day is saturday.

Unless you're after the Wessex HAS1 or Bell 47?

edit: Agusta A.104

Have found the same photo so will post a new one.
 
Apologies for the quality but not got time to sort anything better right now. To get you started, its a proper aircraft with spinny bits on top, and its British. (and according to my source it DID work)
 
If it looks like a Fairchild, it must be a Fairchild. In this case a Fairchild M-84 of 1945.

Feeling pretty good about this one so I will forge ahead here. Next up, a 6 passenger airliner-
