I'll guess De Havilland Vampire, but something looks off to me...
 
It's a De Havilland, but not a Vampire.
 
That is a De Havilland Vixen. Can someone confirm that for me?
 
Well I'm pretty sure it is a Vixen, so here is hte next one:
 
Yes, DeHavilland Vixen. This new one loks familiar but I can't put my finger on it...
 
I believe that's a Dornier from 1944 or so; ummm ummm ummm Do-217 Arrow?

No, not 217... I don't know the number. In the 300s somewhere.
 
"Arrow" ist "pfeil" auf Deutsche.

[edit] All right, I'm taking that as confirmed. Let's see what else we can come up with:

*shoulda just made a new post instead of editing the last one*

B-58 Hustler? It can't be that easy, can it?
 
OK, my go...

Note: This is NOT an SR-71 Blackbird. The object on the back of the aircraft will help you identify exactly what this plane is.

Hehe. Sneaky 359.

It is a M-21 Blackbird, if i am not mistaken.
 
Yep, it's an M-21 Blackbird carrying a D-21 recon drone. Only 3 were ever built (following the production of the A-12), and they were designed to fire the D-21 drone into Russian airspace since Russia and the United States had signed a treaty to banned MANNED flights over each other's land. Hence, the D-21 was used as an UNMANNED version of the SR-71 (same engine and all). The plane was cancelled when a D-21 collided with the M-21 it had just been launched from, killing the crew.

Your go, Mike Rotch.
 
Cool. I would like the proper model number for this aircraft :D
 
The B model?
 
I need the full model name.
 
Oh, c'mon. :)

Boeing B-17B Flying Fortress
 
*Eeeeeeh*

Sorry, incorrect :)
 
Blah! It's definitely one of the early models.
 
I cant give any clues, the pics are just shouting them out ;)
 
Is it a B-29?
