Identify This Aircraft

[JMACK]

Interesting angle. May not be a gift?

Is it a Vickers Vanguard???

[Doc]

Glass cockpit? We don't need no stinking glass cockpit!

[JMACK]

"Um, er, ah, Toronto ground, we're a little confused here.....was that a left or right turn on Delta to Hotel......um...?"

Mavrick and Goose say Mig-28

[Doc]

JMACK....that one's a Bristol Britannia. Some feel the prettiest four engine prop bird ever.

[JMACK]

[quote="Doc"]Hard to ignore the similarities between this and my F27!



For that matter, the ATR and Dash 8.

Gonna say AN-26B or AN-32 I've seen them taxi around with just the APU running "BIG THRUST APU"

[Doc]

BobM....here's one just for you. Don't know what she's flying. Don't care! LOL!

[Doc]

Never seen one from this angle before. Could that be a big gun......or are you just happy to see me?




Moe likely an inflight drinking straw?

[BverLuver]

Doc,

That is one of the most beautiful ugly airplanes in history, the TU-95 Bear

BL

[Doc]

Another shot of the old Bear....





There used to be one of these in CVG. We would sleep in the thing if we had a long delay...

Took a little while to adjust the eyes... but looks like Piper Meridian... (Before the G1000 era)

This one will be a little tougher. Never flown one. Have you?

Convair 990, the fastest, and noisiest passenger jet ever made !

Close...try Illyushin IL-86

[sidestick stirrer]

The airliner with the rear-mounted jets is the Caravelle by Sud Aviation.
They used deHavilland's jigs from the Comet to build the nose section, haven't seen one look as sleek until the 787...

[CID]

I like this machine. A very fast airplane for the time with the unique "area ruling" shapes on the trailing edge.

Don't think it's an An-22...



Looks more like an An-26..I think it says An-26B on the nose too.

Sorry I meant 26 DOH!

Ah the BB the RCAF called the Yukon built at Canadair. Very Beautiful!

Vanguard is an eye catcher as well!

Great pics, Doc. We had an Antonov AN-74 come in this afternoon. Very interesting airplane. If I wasn't on my iPad, I would post a picture. If you google it, it's red white and blue in a striking paint scheme.

[ehbuddy]

I have always liked the CC-106 YUKON. Flew from Trenton to Dusseldorf on this one Dec 1969.

[bmc]

Here it is.

Thanks!

[Beefitarian]

Thank you Bob.

[Doc]

Anybody?

[Doc]

The Jag XKE was, I think, the sexiest car ever built? For airplanes? This has to be in the running....

[Colonel Sanders]

I've always liked this:



But remember, everyone says Russian stuff is junk, so they must be right.

[Doc]

Off topic, but I spotted Cat Driver. I think I know what he's planning for dinner...
