Guest Xtndr50boom Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 ^ is the XB-70. How about this one; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJDRVR Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Very good. Yours is the YF-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xtndr50boom Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Thanks, the landing gear indicator silhouette gave it away for me, only after did I see the 6 engine vib gauges. YF-12? Negative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJDRVR Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Are you sure? Those rotary knobs sure look like inlet guide vane position controls. I still think it looks like an early model SR/YF with the later control stick grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least if you did that, odds of your base getting run over by a hurricane GREATLY decrease! Just trying to include the cave pilots in our little game.

LJDRVR Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 No, it's got condition levers, which make it a turboprop, and the front canopy shape is pretty unmistakable. The ADI/HSI combination are early sixties, which dated it correctly too. My guess is the electronics equipment had something to do with that Ho Chi Minh trail recon thing the Army got tasked with early in Vietnam. I can't remember the name.

Guest Xtndr50boom Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Uh huh. That's all well and good, this whole "knowledge of airplanes" crap. But both you and I realize it's all smoke and mirrors.... ;) Just kidding dude. I won't give up the ghost, but there's also a much easier, albeit a very french way of finding out what kind of airplane it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
