Mild variation, this one, in that there's FOUR aircraft in the pic to identify.

Examples of all four are in preservation in the US as well as Australia. Couple are easy (I think) one toughie.

Usual rules - Mike can't play, warm feeling to the winner/s, and extra rule, no Aussies can play cos they should find it easy. Any Aussie who can't help themselves may PM me with the correct four and will get a special Aussie Smart-Ass award to keep next to their warm feeling.

Off ya go!

Yeah, and I bet you closed your eyes before stabbing too. :lol:

All correct, and points for the Bird dog, of which only the trailing edge of the rudder is showing. For that we won't ask for it to be referred to as an O-1G, not the L-19.

Mike sent me a PM and (boringly) got 100% also. That's why he can't play. :idea:

As may have been guessed, this is part of the new display in the RAAF Museum's Hangar 180 as part of a museum shuffle for the imminent opening of a new hangar display built around the recently allocated F-111G.

Hope people enjoyed,

Regards,

Having achieved my latest triumph and wanting to help increase WIX participation in JDK's Pointless Quiz #4 (whenever and wherever that may be), I now gracefully bow out of competition for the foreseeable future. Make me proud my fellow Americans. Bye bye & buy bonds.
