Absolutely Amazing!
How did you get that so fast (the fact that its the V4 included) ?!?
Your turn!
The plane has a unique configuration, so I actually recognised it immediately. Well, not the V4 part, I had to look that up but I knew it was a Baade 152. Must admit that this configuration of the landing gear is new for me. I only knew the Baade 152 with a landing gear similar to the B-52 bomber. It is a fascinating plane, but damn it's ugly!
Well, here's the next challange that I predict won't be guessed at the first go.
It would seem a hint might be needed. I have not got the original photo on this computer, so a larger crop will follow this evening. The plane is WW2 vintage and experimental.
Nice high lift devices, but other than that I have no good clue.
Maybe a test rig for de Havilland Canada?
Terry Lurking at JP since the BA 777 at Heathrow and AD lost responsiveness to the throttles. How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth? Sherlock Holmes
This aircraft is a personal aircraft, designed and built by one man for himself.
It is the second aircraft he has designed and built, the first was destroyed on the ground by a taxing Cessna (IIRC). It bears the same name as the first, with II (Roman numerals 2) as a suffix.
