Sorry OME, I thought my reply inferred that, sorry. Yes - you are spot on mate. That and the fact that I posted a new image. - only put them up when the previous one has been identified.

While they are quite similar, the window shapes and sizes are slightly different, but the main difference is the horizontal stabiliser on the one above has it's leading edge ahead of the fin, whereas the F-15A has it's leading edge well behind the fin. I featured the F.15A about 55 planes ago.Procaer F.15A Picchio? -

Correct. M1c.
A slight deviation from the thread. The Sokol (Eng: Falcon) was made by Benez Marx in Czechoslovakia after WWII. Another Czechoslovakian aircraft, the L-40 Meta Sokol, was somewhat similar but the vertical stabiliser had straight edges instead of curved. It was a 4 place retractable. It had two unusual features. It had an inverted tricycle undercarriage, in that the main gear was in line with the wing leading edge, and the third wheel was in line with the trailing edge. When retracted, part of the main gear protruded from the well so that in the event of a wheels up landing, the belly of the plane did not touch the ground. See photos below.

You're right about the engine, but not a Zlin.

Lousy fishing - 36 hours and not a nibble. Wrong bait?

That may well be the case in general, but specifically, when talking about an aircraft terminating a flight, the term "landing" generally relates to making contact with the earth, the manner in which it does so, whether controlled or uncontrolled.That is correct colloquial EnglishThe English language has many traps like this and you have to be careful in your choice of words. Like the classic example, "The lady answered the door in her dressing gown." Why did she have a door in her dressing gown?

What an idiot report - "The plane landed upside down." It landed then flipped. If not for the culvert, he may have pulled off a good forced landing, despite the length of the grass.

OK. No bites since Wednesday. The white number with blue and grey highlights is a Fantasy Air Allegro.
Who knows what this is?
