Re: Aircraft Identification Challenge 194
Very tentatively..... is it a Nakajima BN 6 variant ??????
There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.
Re: Aircraft Identification Challenge 194
OK John after much digging I think I have the answer. VL Myrsky.
Finish WW2 fighter.

Well Cliff has got it
It is indeed a VL Myrsky, which was a moderately successful Finnish fighter that was largely let down by it's wooden construction being unsuited to the harsh winter conditions.

You can thank my youngest son for this challenge as he's become quite an expert on Finnish aviation in the 40s and seems to have set himself the challenge of modelling all their major types.
