So without cheating (= without google or wikipedia):

1) A rare French plane but I do not know the name anymore.
Looks like a spitfire

2) Easy: Richthoffen's Foker DR1, the German ace of the 1ere War

3) P51?

4) Hurricane?

5)?

6) Thyphoon, the successor of the hurricane not very little built?

7)?

So I won?

1) The Dewoitine D520 was not so rare that even if there were only thirty in flight during the campaign in France and have done a lot of breakage among the Germans thanks to its great maneuverability and the high quality of its drivers (even the MS406 100km / h however slower and overall largely outclassed by the Me109 have yet made a beautiful flush!), the D520 were also used until the end of the war as a training aircraft by the Germans, because it was as delicate to pose as the Me109 especially because of its narrow gauge train) otherwise in rarities there was also the Arsenal VG33 ... did not had the time to be finalized, the Bloch 157 was finalized under the occupation under surveillance of the occupant, for the remainder to see Wikipedia (it is besides me who wrote the article on Bloch 157 on doc historical)...

2) Fokker d1
3) Mustang P51D (the P51H, lightened and optimized aerodynamics, released at the end of the conflict (555 built) was much faster with 783km / h ...)
4) Curtiss P40 kittyhawk (an extremely robust and high-performance aircraft at low altitude)
5) De Haviland Dragon or Dragon fast (I do not know how to distinguish 2 versions ...)
6) Caudron cyclone (light fighter, mostly used by Finland)
7) Morane Saulnier 317 (easy it's written on it!)
8) Marcel Bloch 157

About MW50: it's quite the mixture that we poured into the Breguet Alizé for the overpowering take-off at full load and hot weather ...

It was not bad despite a bad sky but the Me 262 did not take off :(

He did not even start his engines.

But other legendary planes flew:
a) a catalina
b) a B25
c) a DC-6

I suppose a technical problem on the Me 262 because there was a "leak" between the left wing and the fuselage. Too bad just hearing the noise would have greatly interested me ... :?

Here are some photos...

A10 Tank Killer




by Christophe » 29/06/08, 10:47

An A10, tank killer ... one of the rare "modern" military planes (over 30 years old) on the tarmac

Image


The empenage is simply monstrous!

Ditto for the rotary (30 mm + "depleted" uranium shell I think):

Another aerobatic plane: Extrat 300 L

Image

The same type of plane that we see on this video: http://www.dailymotion.com/econologie/v ... cs_extreme

The famous Me 262 reconstituted (in 2005) we can clearly see the "puddle" of the leak : Cry:

B-25 (which starts) next to the DC-6:

A "piece" of Catalina (more memory after ... :( :
