• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Not a BMW. This was the second version rebuilt as a 10 seat airliner. It was originally intended for the military. You can just make out the rear top turret.

Please don't, Lefty, the 6-nation tournament is a better opportunity yet for such desperate action ;)

Have at it-

I almost feel bad for taking that one away from him. Almost.

Sorry for the wait gentleman.....I left for Oshkosh at 4:30 this morning and just got home....somewhat sunburned :icon_lol: Open floor as I'm heading off to bed and will busy at work tomorrow. I'll post a few pics of the DH Comet when I return - she's a beauty!
 
Open Floor

No worries DH. Looking forward to the Comet pics! BTW- Nice to have another spotter in my time zone.

Next up, a nifty triplane-

Please feel free to move on if you guess this one. I might be out of pocket most of the morning and afternoon. Hopefully Lefty will still be of sound mind and body when the rooster crows.
 
Well, Moses' latest looks as though it should be a Brit, but isn't.

It is a Siemens-Schuckert D Dr1.
