At the kind invitation of John L to pose a picture challenge here goes and apologies if it has already been done before.

Who can name this aircraft type and maker?
Good luck!

Hi Gary, good to see your interest in these 'challenges' .................... but just to fill you in, they are normally posted by myself or John L. or one of the 'mods'.
The reason for this is that we have posted many 'aircraft types' ........ so, not to be repetitive and to also keep within the range of the forum type aircraft.
ie: RAF / Luftwaffe - 1935 to 1947. We have had a few American aircraft over the time but I would prefer that we stick within the forum range.

We do not want to deter you or any other new member from getting involved, so we'll keep going with this one.

If anyone wishes to supply a 'aircraft challenge', please contact myself, John L. or one of the 'mods' and we can post it for you all.
Cheers,
John

Apologies John, please blame me as it was me that invited Gary to post :oops:

I know the answer (thanks to the elusive Cliff who gave me the answer as soon as I walked into work this morning :roll: ), so someone else can have fun with this one :)

Mmmm, I nearly, jumped in with both feet, so to speak.
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.
