Thanks BG.

As I was asked to provide them at the beginning of each thread here they are.

Rules
------

1. When a person answers a question and it is confirmed as correct by the poster of the
question, they then have the floor and are expected to ask the next question.

(You are only allowed to ask a question if the above rule has been adhered to.)

2. If a question isn't asked within 24 hours then it will be assumed that the person
supposed to ask the question has a problem, then the floor will be made open for anyone to
ask the next question to allow the quiz to continue. The same applies if an answer is given and confirmation is not forthcoming within 24 hours

3. Question are to be related to World War II air warfare.

4. If a multiple part question is asked, only one point will be awarded for the answer.

Guidelines
----------

1. To allow fluid running of the quiz, if you answer a question correctly but cannot post
a new question or won't be able to check for answers to your new question, please ask
someone else to post the next question. This doesn't mean you can't go to work or bed but
please be considerate when possible.

2. Please don't abuse the above guideline by just answering questions and then passing it
to someone else all the time, instead of asking one yourself (see rule 1).

3. If you have posted a question and it becomes obvious that nobody knows the answer, it is customary to offer a hint or clue.

4. When posting picture questions, it is recommended that you do not direct link. Use
something like 'Photobucket' to host your pictures (most people can see pictures linked
from there, whereas some other sites are not visible globally) and don't forget to disguise the name of the picture

Be back with the stats shortly.

Thanks Dance and also thanks to blairgowrie.

Aircraft ID please.



Been told to wrap it up wifely shorthand for

So if you are positive you have the answer fire ahead with the next question. It'll be 9 -10 hours before I can get on again.

Nightall

Time for PART NINE, an intermission and some stats updates, up to and including Rock_Kettler's last answer.

I'm amazed that it has lasted this long.
Time for a clue:
The designer was better known for his gliders than powered aircraft.

Clue No 2.
The designer's son became world famous in a more cubic capacity.

Rubik R-14 Pinty?

That's the one Dance Well done as per

You have the floor.

I was fascinated by the father/son connection.

Thanks Rock, only got it due to your 'cubic' clue

Another I.D., shouldn't be too hard. What's this?

It's gotta be a Fokker T.VIII.....

Of course Heliopause, should have known better than use a plane from The Netherlands with you around, although it seems just about everyone flew one

After the Dutch surrender some fokker ended up in Britain, being flown by 320 Sqn. Others where used by Germany flying from the Adriatic sea.

O.K. name the plane.

Bell P-59 Aircomet

Correct Jolly! It's a P-59B. (A-version didn't have this armament?)

Floor is yours.....

Thank you Helipause ,The YP-59 and subsequent marks had guns and i have seen pictures of A and B aircraft with and without armament I don't think there hard and fast rules on guns
The B model was fitted with uprated engines and bigger fuel capacity this made it slightly heavier

Whom is this

Sir Sydney Camm.

Yup sure is

Mr D is up

Thanks Mr J.

Not sure if this one has been asked before, apologies if it has. Why is this 110 sporting those markings and why is in this undignified position?

Target Practice?
