Re: Quiz, Can you name this plane

Without checking, is this a Buckers Bu-131?

Not a Buckers Bu-131.but kind of close though. This is a Hungarian aircraft that did do some close copying of the Bu 131 fuselage. There is still one in a museum in Hungary.

Re: Quiz, Can you name this plane

I found this interesting site about three weeks ago, but didn't think to check it on this one. The Belgian bomber--actually a single prototype- was the LACAB GR. 8.

Right answer and thought you might have been to that site before.

Re: Quiz, Can you name this plane

Not a Fokker DXXI, but a Finnish designed trainer . Design does resemble Fokker DXXI and this was done to smooth transition to the Fokker fighter. One of these still exist in a museum in Finland. Clue the identity of this aircraft can be found in side lettering. Finnish planes had plane type incorporated in their numbering system. Bristol Bulldog (BU), Gloster Gladiator (GL), Fiat G50 (FA), Morane Saulnier MS 406 (MS), Fokker D.XXI (FR), Curtiss Hawk 75A-6 (CU) and Hurricane (HC) are some examples. The plane in picture is PY 3, so in some form PY is part of he aircraft name or manufactures name.

VL Pyry II - something else I have learned from this quiz.

You are correct again! The Pyry II definitely looks alot like the Fokker D.XXI.

Re: Quiz, Can you name this plane

Have one last one for the evening, this one could be a little tricky, but at least it has appropriate markings to determine nationality.


Ok this one is a tough one for sure, and there is one in a museum in Budapest, but its tricky to get a photo of it.
Clue one. Might try doing search through 1000aircraftphotos.com Main Menu using country name for search. Then it is just a matter of ferreting through the planes.

Re: Quiz, Can you name this plane

Since last plane was a little tricky, will put one on that should be a bit easier.

Ah yes of course, it's the old Fábián Levente II.

Took a bit of digging, but you nailed it! Probably hardest one I have put out yet.
