All New Name That Aircraft - July 2009

[Kjell Engkrog]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we have a winner!

It is indeed the Gowland Jenny Wren.

Well done that man!

Your controls, guamainiac - heal your welts.

Cheers.

[guamainiac]

Got to pass. So have fun.

But not too much fun.

OK then...if I may jump in with this wheel....

[brianw999]

Oh, go on then. I'm in a good mood so I'll add a tailwheel.....

[guamainiac]

Those wheels look familiar?

Like a morgue gurney?

[brianw999]

Possibly !!!!

[brianw999]

It's a version of a very well known manufacturer of high wing aircraft which I will be seeing next weekend. Guamaniac, your last comment could well be related to its use.

[guamainiac]

A Beaver? They were used as back country utility vee-hickles.

[brianw999]

Nope, not a Beaver.

Remember, I said A tailwheel...not necessarily THE tailwheel !!

[brianw999]

Here's a bit more.....

[brianw999]

I should add that all the parts shown are to scale and in the correct place in the image.

[darrenvox]

wow, you have stumped me

[brianw999]

Which aviation owners club had a fly - in recently at my favourite GA airfield ? the one that I have a LOT of pictures from ?

[guamainiac]

#G-AJEM ... and Auster 531 ??

[brianw999]

Wrong reg....wrong type....right manufacturer.

I have never actually seen one of these and don't even know if one still exists.

Think about what I do for a living ? I might have been professionally involved with one of these many years ago....If I did for a living then what I do now for a living !!
