BREGUET's CRASH FILE CHALLENGE Nr. 394
Wilkommen to another week-end edition, I hope that everyone except Australia/New Zealand is awake (sorry Breguet, Ross, & others).
After a busy week I submit the following for your entertainment:  Should be a fairly easy one!  Clue Nr.I: there is a Nr."3" on the side of the fuselage!  Scoreboard after crash file #393 is: 48.50 FOKKERJ Feuchtwanger ¤ Ace of Aces ¤ Congratulation 36.20 Froggy ¤ Nr.I Wing Man ¤ 32.70 Flamingo ¤ 30.10 Rbailey ¤ 23.40 Breguet 22.15 Richard B 18.15 YavorD 14.25 Aquilius 12.00 Varese2002 10.25 AROTH 08.10 Rod_Filan 08.00 ONEALM 07.90 Gregvan 07.50 matte_kudasai 06.80 '14-'18aviationcollector 05.75 Ross 05.70 Jeroplan 05.50 Expositor 05.50 Gilles 05.00 Dan_San 05.00 Kilian 05.00 Laserlloyd.............................Have to wait three hours! 04.00 Edmond .............................May start immediately! 04.00 Eric 04.00 Patrick 03.80 gregorydquist 03.75 Lodzermensch 03.50 sergio_vitalio 03.30 PaulForster 03.20 Colin A Owers 03.20 Crankcase 03.10 Catfish 03.00 Crimso 02.70 Tbstreet 02.00 Albatros_Ace 02.00 Cruze 02.00 Rickenbaron 01.80 Tom L 01.50 Nieuport 14 01.45 Ransom E. Olds 01.00 Ampovandak 01.00 Berman 01.00 brisfitworks 01.00 Cliff 01.00 Graham Hunter 01.00 Pvernon 01.00 rammjaeger 01.00 Rexee 01.00 RONNY BAR 01.00 Troy Raines 00.50 Miroslav Pokorny 00.10 SCMc Previous Breguet's Crash Files THE RULES 1. All aircraft are of the 14-18 period (Must have left the ground during this period). 2. The score board, link and rules must be copied to the beginning of each thread, so that we know where we are. The score board and the correct answer to the challenge must also be placed at end of each thread. 3.All "ACES" with a score of 5.0 or higher must obey the 3.0 hour handicap. All others with a score of ZERO to 4.99 may start immediately, if not sooner! Offenders will be dealt with severely! 4. To be eligible for correct ID an answer must include at least one characteristic of the aircraft that helped in its identification. 5. And whom ever wins this challenge will have to provide a new one! If this can not be done for any reason, please PM Breguet and he will take over as host! 6. If an ace gives the correct answer too early, the challenge is over, he gets no point but has to post the next challenge. In lieu of the fact that the "novices" have in effect been "cheated" of their "exclusive" time that next post should be a relatively easy one. Anyone repeating the correct answer at the right time gets neither a point nor the right to post the next challenge. 7. The final arbitrator of all things to do with the "rules" is Breguet REMEMBER: "IF YOU CAN'T RUN WITH THE BIG DOGS.... STAY ON THE PORCH!" Oh ya, and have fun! HAPPY TRAILS, FOKKERJ

Hello,
The next challenge in the series: guess what FOKKERJ wanted to hide?  Flat bottom of the fuselage with poorly retouched section, probably there was the opening for the camera, fuselage made of plywood, the shape of upper wing tips, characteristic shape of that part of lower wing, which was connected with the fuselage - it may be DFW C.V. The front section of the fuselage and airscrew without the spinner indicate one of early machines. Greetings Marek Last edited by Lodzermensch; 14 March 2009 at 09:32 AM. |

Congratulations to Marek for correctly identifying what I too believe to be a D.F.W. C.V.
Marek wins one full point (I should award him 1.25 so that he can wait with the rest of us! ).Here is the less touched up version with the "Tell Tail"!  Scoreboard after crash file #39 is: 48.50 FOKKERJ Feuchtwanger ¤ Ace of Aces ¤ 36.20 Froggy ¤ Nr.I Wing Man ¤ 32.70 Flamingo ¤ 30.10 Rbailey ¤ 23.40 Breguet 22.15 Richard B 18.15 YavorD 14.25 Aquilius 12.00 Varese2002 10.25 AROTH 08.10 Rod_Filan 08.00 ONEALM 07.90 Gregvan 07.50 matte_kudasai 06.80 '14-'18aviationcollector 05.75 Ross 05.70 Jeroplan 05.50 Expositor 05.50 Gilles 05.00 Dan_San 05.00 Kilian 05.00 Laserlloyd.............................Have to wait three hours! 04.75 Lodzermensch Almost 3.0 Hours! 04.00 Edmond .............................May start immediately! 04.00 Eric 04.00 Patrick 03.80 gregorydquist 03.50 sergio_vitalio 03.30 PaulForster 03.20 Colin A Owers 03.20 Crankcase 03.10 Catfish 03.00 Crimso 02.70 Tbstreet 02.00 Albatros_Ace 02.00 Cruze 02.00 Rickenbaron 01.80 Tom L 01.50 Nieuport 14 01.45 Ransom E.

Thanks FOKKERJ. I still have not found, what did you hide behind corkscrew curls? Greetings Marek |
