This one *may* have been posted before and if so we'll go with Challenge #161(A) and post a different photo. But I looked back through the threads and cannot find it so here ya go. And to make up for lost time, there are two airplanes. Please identify both of them...

Details and the names of the participants will follow a correct identification.

An exceptionally difficult challenge.

I'm inclined to agree!

I,m thinking this one is the first use of the 'STEALTH" camouflage....

Regards,

FOKKERJ

P.S. It was really difficult waiting the 3 hour "ACES" Handicap on this one!

Hello Onealm

My guess is that is a collision between two invisible planes clearly seen on this photo white & white-

Here is another photo taken in another angle

My, my what a bunch of comedians we all are. Surely these are two all black night fighters (perhaps one at least flown by Von Schlect) that managed to collide inside a coal mine at midnight?

ONEALM · 10 January 2008, 04:19 AM

OK so I didn't check to see if the attachment made it.... Here it is.

Oh, yes, and for the impatient's (in-patients in some cases...) the Ace clock started over again - wait your turn please gents...

Wrong Oh Great One. These are the two aircraft flown by the great ace Ahura Mazda. (bonus brownies for the first one to tell me why that makes any sense in light of the first post in this thread.)

Bonsoir

the one at right on photo could be an armstrong whitworth fk 8
(rudder shape) but no idea for left -I should say a Royal aircraft factory BE 2c ?
