Tu 166 black jack? :confused:
 
Since menglan doesn't appear to be around yet, I'll post another that I've always found very interesting.

And yes, this thing really flew....

wtf??? I can't wait to see what that thing is :lol:
 
Dang! I would have gotten the B-70. Do you know the cockpit was 60 feet forward of the nose wheels, and about 40 feet off the ground?

I've got less than zero clue about the flying Twinkie above.
 
You serious, 40ft? That's taller than my house!
 
sorry, i had a choir cocert to go to, someone can take the next pic.
 
Wasn't that another stealth reaserch plane that lost out to the f 117? that thing is so ugly.:eek:
 
That's Tacid Blue.
 
It was designed to see how radar waves hit and bounce off the front of the aircraft.
 
I cant find a pic to confirm it Zero, do you have the actual aircraft name?

Neon - great identification of the Nakajima Tsurugi 👍
 
Matched, so your go then 👍
 
Let's try airliners!

Boeing.....

Edit: A 727?
 
Nope. Boeing is correct. But which one? :)
 
Nope.
 
Yes, positive identification on the Tacit Blue, also known as the Blue Whale. It actually flew way back in 1982 for over 135 missions, and was kept totally secret until the late 1990s.

As for the new plane, Boeing 707?
 
The 707's I see are four engined.

Edit: My bad, we cant see if this pic is conclusively a two engined airliners.
 
Well it's hard to tell from the picture if there are 2 or 4 engines.
 
Is it just a plain old 737?
 
Nope. Here's a diff. pic:

359 asked if it was a 707 on the previous page.
 
It is NOT a 707.
 
Boeing 367-80? Forerunner or the 707?
 
No, you're on the right track.
 
after a couple of days looking at these aircrafts, i feel like getting stuck into FS2004 again
 
No, this plane isn't a prototype. AA bought about 150 of these.

I wish I had time to fly in FS2004. Work + School = no videogame time.
