Your turn please

Thanks BG.

Let's try something larger. Sorry about the grainy photo.

That, sir, is the postman's van ! The Martin MP, an MB-1 variant built for the U.S Postal Service.

Not many images around but found this nice one -

***Moses03*** · August 31st, 2014, 09:24

Through rain, sleet, wind, cold or whatever the postman's motto is...Lefty is spot on.

Nice pic btw.

**lefty** · August 31st, 2014, 14:03

Had a frustrating weekend - the best-laid plans etc......so here's an easy one to get on with -

**Dev One** · August 31st, 2014, 23:24

My guess is the HPR2, possibly the first prototype.
Keith

**lefty** · September 1st, 2014, 03:03

It is indeed WE 496, the first prototype, Keith. Over to you -

**Dev One** · September 1st, 2014, 04:28

Thanks Mike, try this parasol floater - can't say I've seen it before, but my memory is failing unfortunately!
Keith

**lefty** · September 1st, 2014, 05:24

Hmmm, German, methinks ?

Well done, over to you sir.

Walter, do you know if it is still around ??? Over to Texas......

Hi Mike!. My apologies for late reply, but was u/s spending some time in the hangar.
Registration N37463 was cancelled 24 September 1996, but I woud hope that someone has taken care of this unique aircraft.

**Baragouin** · September 2nd, 2014, 01:56

Good morning boys and girls!
This is my today's enigmatic pic not on AeroFiles....but nevertheless a lovely craft....
Cheers!

**lefty** · September 2nd, 2014, 13:19

One has to wonder what on earth the Army were doing with 9 Air Yachts.......?

One for recon trials, eight for spare parts!

And now for something completely different...

**lefty** · September 2nd, 2014, 21:36

That's a captured Tachikawa Ki-55.

***Moses03*** · September 3rd, 2014, 06:54

It most certainly is.

for Lefty!

**lefty** · September 3rd, 2014, 09:16

Here's a very smart little runabout. You won't find her in Aerofiles (because she's not American...)

**wout** · September 3rd, 2014, 13:21
