Another few clues:

It was a competitor, against the Avenger, as a replacement for the Douglas Devestator, and not so famous.

Found more on escort and light carriers, land bases and lend lease to Allied nations fighting in the Pacific theatre. Also a trainer.

It could also dive bomb, unlike the Avenger, so no TB prefix.

The company always named aircraft with the same initial letter as the company name.

Erm....

yes it is a sea wolf. At least YOUR PIC is a sea wolf.


Unl;ess your thinking of a different plane to the pic, which i would then guess your thinking of maybe the brewster bucanner, lend lease name with the fleet air arm - burmuda.

The tail is low set, the Sea Wolf has a high tail.

The trainer in question is pretty much a house hold name and a familiar sight at airshows.

Most of this particular aircraft was flown by Commonwealth naval pilots.

They made the RAF's only dive bomber, which was used in Burma.

1 point for the manufacturer.

1 point for the US Navy Designation.

1 point for the name.

1 point for the British service name.

Only one clue concession.... it isn't a Grumann designed aircraft.

Oh, and that's not a TBF- Avenger, it's a TBY Sea Wolf. That one was too easy.

EDIT: AND I'LL BE BACK IN A COUPLE HOURS TO POST MY PLANE(S) SO DON'T ANYONE POST A PLANE UNTIL ME!!!
