what is it....new game.
 

ok here's the rules. #1 you have to guess correctly what aircraft from BoP <<<<that is the restriction ( must be a BoP ac) the pic is from. #2 IF you do guess correctly....you have to post a pic of a part of a BoP ac for us to guess....and so on. so here ya go. SO you better have something good for us if you win....lol. this is the first pic...good luck. What is it??

I wild guess... Tailweel Me 262.

The 262 had the more conventional and stable trike undercarriage did it not?

I do agree its a tail wheel though. Meaning it could be one of many things..

I-153 tailwheel?

i-16 tail wheel

Correct, although some of the prototypes did have tail wheels, untill it was found to be VERY unsafe, and a few planes went pop!

That prototype must have been a death trap, if you throttled up to quickly and you'd have an afterburner unit in the engine!

Good catch olife. you are correct. its the tail wheel of a I-16. ok now its your turn to post a pic for us to guess.

thanks a lot bobbysocks,i was lucky...
very good thread

now what is it?

i'm going to guess its a D520 like the sig you have under it... :grin:

no,sorry...

to help u, i must say the plane of my pic is in the game il2 birds of prey

Spitfire? From that angle I'd say a mark2?

not a spîtfire bud

is that a p51b olife?

looks like it could be a P51 with a malcom hood. but the 3 blade prop is throwing me.

is the p51b in the game really a p51a(mustang II) ?
bobbysocks ,this ones an p51a ,i think

Could be a YAK.....

i think you got it dave...olife is the official judge tho. this one has to have a merlin in it because i do not see the air intake above the prop. i never saw a 51 with a 3 blade prop before ...but never saw too many RAF 51s either. as for what is in the game...i never paid attention to the B. always flew the D. looking at a yak3 i see a lot of similarities ...just the front windshield seems too far forward...but it could be the way the pic is angled.

I'd say it was a Yak-3

im leaning to yak3 now,i think foz has this one,ive got a good one lined up .

yes foz it is a yak but what yak?,and yes bobbysocks a lot a similarities with the yak 3 because it is a yak3.
foz guess it is a model of yak,bobbysocks have a doubt about the windshield , balder002 find the complete name the first.he have the credit.
davedog74 find it too but lightly too late.

WAHOO! I won something! Ok, you guys will have to wait until tonight when I get home from work to see my offerings!

yak 9

it is a yak 3,but agree with u there are a lot of similarities with the yak 9

I didnt read the replies before i posted, so didnt notice the YAK3 had been pointed out. My bad.

OK then! My go! Nice easy one! Bonus point for naming the pilot!

well....its a 109 in africa colors. so i am going with,,,,,Hans-Joachim Marseille???

i think marseille only got oak leaves ,this guy has oak leaves and swords,only 53 luftwaffe members got both,
total guess,adolf galland 109f

bf109f-4/z trop "yellow 14" 3/jg 27 hans joachim marseille


but too late for me,bobbysocks and dave are the first to think about marseille and bf109...

Davedog74 got the type and model of the aircraft right, and Bobby got the pilot right!

"He reached the zenith of his fighter pilot career on 1 September 1942, when during the course of three combat sorties he claimed 17 enemy fighters shot down, earning him the Ritterkreuz mit Eichenlaub, Schwertern und Brillanten (Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds). "

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...JMarseille.jpg

As the rules go, its Dave who won this round, sorry Bobby!

Your right, it is indeed his 109. Sept 42.

One of his pics is him standing next to the wreck (good conditioned to) of a Hurricane he shot down!!! Not amused, its a sorry sight to see :(

no probs bud

well i got the plane,but i was about as wrong as you can be on the pilot ,iknew he got oak leaves in 42 ,but thought hed be on more kills by then,what was he playing at?,i dont know.

well, a shallow victory, but heres my effort chaps

at first i though it looks like a Blenheim 4? Then i thought a bf110 - and thats wha i am sticking with. a BF110 -the roundall being a bit of a cheeky side stepper!

sorry no, balderz mate(rubbing my hands together,derek trotter style)
edit. edit edit ,im not doing well today,spot on bf110
how long was that 10 mins,im going off to cry
well done and goodnight!

HAHA, good shout! Thought it might be a while before someone got that one (it is indeed a 110C captured by the RAF), i dont have any pics so didnt answer because i didnt have anything to post. Well played in getting it so quick!! The aerial and the rudder are the give away i think :D

Erm.. i think it is.....

wawooo!!!nice balderz!!!!
this one was hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dang you guys are too fast!! lol. whos up?

I guess its me!

I hope you guys struggle a bit with this one, as I tried to make it hardish

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...y/Untitled.jpg

I-16?

Fraid not...........

Didnt think so, would of been hugely suprised if it was. I was just clutching at straws haha.

HE-III

still clutching!

can you make it so we can zoom in?

I've tried, but no luck :( really struggling with the extremely small picture haha

i am guessing a spitfire....have no idea what model tho

Sorry about the size, when I cut and saved it, that was the size of the image.

Here is another one of the same part of the plane, but a bit wider shot....... You might get it now!

fw190

He shoots, he scores!

Bravo olife!

I hoped the 'P' and roundall would confuse, as would it being in black and white.....

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...Untitled-3.jpg

olife, my man, i think you may have it. the back of the canopy sure looks like a fw190

ooops a little late....was looking stuff up at the same time. good catch olife. your up.

thanks a lot bud,i was lucky

and agree with u bobby the back of the canopy help me a lot,good catch for u too,thanks

now what is this plane?,i must say a plane of ace...

Thats right cheeky olife! having some tarp over the canopy!

Is it a P-47? Or a P-51? I would say a P-51 as the RAF didnt use the P-47 in Europe really.

Typhoon/Tempest

olife! you cant use that plane! It has to be a plane in the game!

Thats Clostermann abroad his Tempest!

oooops...exuse me bud,i m a stupid frenchy!big error from me!!!
i will not do this stupid error in the future...sorry

...and yes u win balderz002,it is the tempest of clostermman,good job!!!

Have another bash!

sorry and exuse me cause don't see your reply before i do my reply to balderz002
but typhoon and tempest are 2 different planes,and the exactly name of the plane of my pic is tempest...sorry but i credit balderz
it was a good catch foz,even if balderz was more precise...u are unlucky

exuse me for my ignorance in english language but can u explain me :"have another bash"
guys i m really sorry to disturb u with my ignorance but i like to understand because this thread is really great and if i don't understand i m not able to participate...thanks to pardon me

Have another bash = have another go

i have an other try with a plane of the game?

yes :D

oh, ok this stupid frenchy understand now!!!lol
exuse me for delay!!

let's go ,what is this plane?

Fw190d?

fw:yes but not the d9

Is it the F8 ?

(as there are only 3 FW's in game this is a pure 50/50 guess!)

not the f8 bud
but maybe there are 4 fw's in the game.....

It's not fair for me to guess again!!

(Ta-152-H1)

bingo winny!!! good job!!1 credit for u!!!

after we run through all the BoP ac we may have to expand to other ww2. but lets wait until we reach that point. ok winny you are up.

Ok...

Stab in the dark as I'm sat in a traffic jam and can't really see it!
Blenheim??

Nope.. sorry (I'm now wondering if this is too hard!)
The wonders of the british road system..

Thats a radial engine, and they are in Soviet uniforms! I can see that its either an La-5FN or an La-7. And as the La-5FN is my fave, thats what I am going for!

System!! What system! Well I'm at least 100yds further down the road but at least back in reception!

You are right. And I like the way you got there!

Wahoo! Right again! - I could also tell by the undercarriage bay and the big metal plate on the fuselage behuind the engine.

Sorry guys but you will have to wait til I get back from work tonight for the next installment!

Here we go folks!

j2m raiden

yak 3??? like this one.

I-16?

its not another FW190 is it?

Keep guessing folks!

Big hint: look at the way the wheel is attached to the undercarriage leg on the right side.

Il-10?

p47

or yak1

Nope to all of the above!

blenheim???

Naaaaaaaah mate!

Nope that goes backwards i think.

This pic leads me to believe that it is a P-51, possably a D. The flaps look wrong though?

Fail!

machi mc202

W00t! Got there in the end!!
