Paint work looks like a B-1A to me. I dunno if there were other models (C's,D's etc) though.
 
i think it was close enough in the first place, that mooney aircraft i posted wasnt identified 100% correctly but i didnt care
 
Yeah, Mike should get it. The only major difference between the A and B models are the type of ejection seats that are installed.
 
As it appears people may be stuck, here is a Post War picture of the same plane:

EDIT: It will be easy to confirm a correct identification in google in my absence...
 
I believe it's a Nakajima fighter. I don't have a model number, but I think it wa built to be a Kamikaze - hence the cheap fixed gear, etc.
[edit]
Yeah, just found the model number - Ki 115, purpose-built kamikaze plane.
 
yep i can confirm thats the one, you turn neon

for some strange reason japanese never occured to me?

Plenty of clues all over this one.
 
that one is easy, but i wont say what it is because i have to go to bed, and dont have time to post up my another pic
 
I needed to hear B-1A because if I would have accepted B-1B, I wouldn't have gone to the trouble of finding a picture of one of the 4 B-1As in existence. :p

And you actually have two seperate planes there. The first is an Aero Spacelines 377SG Super Guppy (not Airbus ;) ), the NASA plane is an Aero Spacelines 377SGT Super Guppy Turbine.
 
Ok getting the plane is easy.......
I want the name of the squadron/team

They're the Blue Angels in F-18s.

In the same vein:

Sure, it's the Red Arrows. Now I need the aircraft...
 
OK, this one will be trickier. This is the interior of a plane, famous for it's sheer size. If you guys can't figure it out, I'll post a picture of the outside of the plane.

Here's your hint though: There is only 1 of these planes in existence anymore.

The359-Engines.jpg


The first picture is inside the massive air intake, and the second picture is the 3 of the plane's 6 total engines.
 
Massive size, eh? I'll guess the An-225. I first thought Spruce Goose, because there is only one and it is big. But upon seeing the engines, the Goose was out of the question.
 
The An-225 doesn't have internal engines, it has nacelles :p

That, and they aren't grouped together.
 
could it be the tu 144 supersonic plane? seems a bit big for that though

could be one of those beriev "sea monsters":odd:


could it be the lockheed xb 70 valkerye?
 
The Tu-144 is certainly the same type of plane (at least design wise), but this thing was even bigger.

EDIT: Yes, you got it, the North American XB-70 Valkyrie

Your go.
