Ok, l'm quietly confident that this challenge is much harder than it looks.
Can you name this aircraft type and maker?
Good luck!

Sorry Cliff, no, its actually from a well known maker.
I must admit I didn't know of it ( but then again, I don't know many of them
)
This image will probably give it away.

Gentlemen,
To state the obvious, I know just the basic range of aircraft types and rely on searched information to present to you all.
Here is the completed image, with source / detail listed and l stand corrected if it proves otherwise.
I value your input and will make corrections after your debate.
Cheers,
John

Hi John
This is the real Avro Antelope

Someone got their wires severely crossed when they captioned that photo

Very good John.
I must admit the aircraft did look familiar from a recent challenge.
after l found the 'posted' image of an Antelope, l tried to find other types of images to no avail.
Now l understand why.
Looks like Cliff gets the chocolates.
Thanks for the correction.
John
