Name that Aircraft

[maverick55]

Space shuttle....

Not really alot to work with there..

[uy707]

Early days' Caravelle IIIs close to overun the runway

[Kjell Engkrog]

Took a Frenchman to crack it.

It is indeed a Caravelle III, SE-DAB of SAS. They used the brake chute when landing on slippery runways.

You have control, M`sieu, well done!

Cheers,

[uy707]

OK then, that was mostly wild guess out of the position of the horizontal stabilizer !

Should not be very difficult

[Tecnanaut]

707?

[Petertenthije]

dc-3

[uy707]

Sorry. Neither a 707 nor a DC.3. Let it speak
First clue : I am not American

Letting it Speak

Ok Im going to ask for a hint based on whether I'm seeing the picture in light of a true aviation enthusiast:

- I'm guessing since the wipers are off to the sides and not protected by fairings, it is a comparatively slower airliner, a turboprop
- I'm guessing the light blue stripe around the pilot's ticket window indicates Warsaw Pact origin
- Further guessing that the tan glare shield is also Warsaw pact and less than 20 years old
- Looking at the picture, I didnt get an immediate flash of recognition like Airbus cockpit windows or British windows. So it must be rare.
- It is not military or dual use due to lack of eyebrow windows or multiple center panes

Iljuschin IL-114?

[uy707]

Uncle Jay identified the area of origin, age bracket and functionality of the bird. Should I write something more ... I blow out the quiz !

Sorry tynopeb, it's not the IL.114

Keep looking for in this area

[tynopeb]

Hm, no Il-114.......
I know that I saw these windows once in my lifetime in reality......

I think I've got it: Beriev Be-200?

If your answer is "yes", than it's probably RF-32767, photographed at Berlin Airshow / ILA 2006 at SXF.

when you bring it on this point...i'm on your side. It could be the BE-200

THE CONTROLS ARE IN YOUR HANDS

[tynopeb]

Nice!

Ok, my turn. Hope thats as tricky as its predecessor...

[tynopeb]

No one? Oh come on you guys, it's not soo hard.
Ok I'll give you a hint: It was designed as a multi-porpose airplane but sadly only one was ever built.

I hope thats enough to solve the mystery!
