vulcan's is a Sud se-210 caravelle, and Flynlion's is a traffic cop with a bad attitude and an ah-64 apache.

What's with the funny hat choppers like that one wear sometimes

2 points for KozzmO :grin:

The funny hat is an electronics package carried by the "longbow' version of the Apache to snoop over terrain. I love that picture, though I suspect it is probably a photoshop. It was sent to me by a good buddy who was an Apache pilot in Iraq. Here's one of him giving his little girl a flying lesson:

I'm not quite sure I believe that, it looks like maybe the rotor broke so they had to reattach it with a giant nail.

The longbow will be in trouble if it encounters enemies with flying hammers.

An aircraft with a funny hat deserves to be followed by one with a funny name:

all identifying marks have been blurred out, so no use looking for them.

is it a mirage maybe a rafel?

Wissam24 11-27-2009 12:05 PM

Mirage III?

And yeah, the Apache photo is a photoshop.

On the other hand, this one isn't..

Haha, bonus if you can name THAT plane

Dassalt Mirage III

All good guesses but wrong... remember, funny name

For another hint, the production of this plane involved spies and stolen plans.

The plane in the tree is a Huff-Daland Duster. Leaving the N-number visible is an invitation to cheat, so I did :D

Wissam24 11-27-2009 05:06 PM

No idea but did you hear the F-35 plans were stolen?
