There are two types of aviation expert.. those that fly and those that know about things that fly; seldom are they the same beast :lol: :lol: :lol:

Blimey.....been away for a few weeks and a quiz posted on my return....... :roll:

This one is NOT an easy one either.... :worried: However, I think I have all of 'em named ...well at least I am confident on 4 of them but the 5th is not 100% in my mind but in any case I have PM'd my answers to Trevor so that I do not spoil things for others as this is a good one and will cause some head scratching for sure.... ;-)

Good luck to all on this one.

Regards.

Bridon Bear ;-)

Well, this is a hard one (as the actress said to the Bishop), Mr B Bear has given me his answers and he still has one to get!! That is the first time I have managed to outfox him at the first attempt.

Just give it go chaps, I would not have got them all if I did not know the answers, an easier competition will follow next week.

Got most of them but stuck with the very modern looking #4. :brick:

#2 has featured in almost every aircraft recognition contest since 1940.
