Aircraft Identification Challenge 227

Post by K4KittyCrew »

Ok then, with the new year, thought it may be time to test you all to see if you still know your aircraft and not relying on past performances ........ ha!

Right, who can name this aircraft type, variant and maker?
Good luck ............ more clues to follow.
Cheers,
John

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.
