Brewster received an M-63 engine in Finland.
 "Once (I think it was 31st aug. 1940), I was in a fight with four Hurricanes over Dover. I was back over the channel when I saw another Hurricane coming from Calais, trailing white smoke, obviously in a bad way. I flew up alongside him and escorted him all the way to England and waved goodbye. A few weeks later the same thing happened to me. That would never have happened in Russia - never".

The HUMU!
Sorry. I can't do pics The only real plane I have ever flown in. |

hmm Heliopaus is partially right, but it was not really a Brewster, it was - as stated by JSG72 - the HUMU, an all Finnish homemade and design "version" of the Brewster. So it wasn't really a Brewster...kind of
 .I give Heliopause 45% of the win, but 55% to JSG72 as it was the name Humu I was looking for. Really an intriguing plane indeed... Well done, floor is yours JSG nite all.                  _________________ a.k.a F19_Klunk online "In an open cockpit, no one can hear you scream - like a little girl" F19 Virtual Squadron, The Squadron that gave you the J8A |

Mmmm...Thinking on my feet here
 What connects the A-24 with the Mustang? And what kept it off the ground? The only real plane I have ever flown in. |
|||
|
Too stupid to figure out last question, but I bet the answer to the first is that both the A-24 and the A-36 Mustang had dive brakes.

At first a couple of "normal" Brewsters received this engine.
"Producer Brewster Aeronautical Corporation, USA Country of origin: USA Engine Wright R-1820-G5 Cyclone / 950 hp, 9 cylinder air-cooled radial engine (BW-363, 365, 371, 374, 379 and 392 were later powered by Soviet Shvetsov M-63 engine)" "Once (I think it was 31st aug. 1940), I was in a fight with four Hurricanes over Dover. I was back over the channel when I saw another Hurricane coming from Calais, trailing white smoke, obviously in a bad way. I flew up alongside him and escorted him all the way to England and waved goodbye. A few weeks later the same thing happened to me. That would never have happened in Russia - never".

OK! Can I through the P-39/P-40 in the mix.
When I say "Off the ground" I don't mean powerplant or wings.  The only real plane I have ever flown in. |

I stand corrected Heliopause, they did use Shvetsov engines on the Brewsters . So you answer was legit and correct. Both answers were correct, but as I was looking for the word "Humu" and we are on the way already, so I stand by giving JSG the win

Both lacked tailhook?  P-39/P-40 as well  It had large pneumatic tires for better ground handling??? _________________ a.k.a F19_Klunk online "In an open cockpit, no one can hear you scream - like a little girl" F19 Virtual Squadron, The Squadron that gave you the J8A |

Yo!
Think you better off to bed now F19_ You'll have to do better than that.  I'll admit it is a hard one to Net search.  The only real plane I have ever flown in. |

I am looking for an actual aircrafts name.
The only real plane I have ever flown in. |
|||
|
 |
XP-75 "Eagle" ?
 |
|||
|
|
|
That's the one harry.
The reason I had said A-24 and Mustang was that the original concept was to utelise the Mustang outer wing panels. And of course what kept it off the ground was the F4U undercarriage "Fighters Vol. 4" by William Green. Or. http://www.military.cz/usa/air/war/fighter/p75/p75_en.htm The only real plane I have ever flown in. |

It looks a bit but no, the aircraft above is a dive-bomber.
If you find from wich country, it should be easy to find his name. The engine cowl can give a hint, as it looks like a cowl of an aircraft in the game. |

|
The SM-85 dive bomber---country: Italy, naturally. Not a success.
