ALLRIGHT!!!
Thanks for the confirmation! It wasn’t what I originally thought it was, but that got me in the ball park. I sure learned a lot researching this one.
Whew…can’t wait for the next one.
For me that’s the fun of this kinda stuff, if I’m trying to figure out what something is I usually come across a whole lotta other stuff which, related or not, proves to be very interesting or useful.
I generally look stuff up on the net first because it’s easier than dragging out a ton of books and rags or going through the files, and half of what I’ve found on the net I’ve found quite by accident while looking for something else. It’s amazing what’s out there…
Fade to Black…
Hey, I see we’re up to 5 correct now. The stumper tag is starting to fall off at this point I think. I can’t wait for the answer myself, I’m anxious.
Okay, I’ll end the suspense…
As you can see, there were nineteen responses with five being correct. The five:
eagle334
Ashley
salbando
djmodels1999
Dai Jones
The answer?
Tachikawa Ki-54 Hickory
This particular aircraft was evaluated by an allied Technical Air Intelligence Unit (TAIU) at the end of the war. For more info on these units, go HERE.
My good pal Eagle334 has asked if he can MC the next quiz, so he’ll be hosting this coming week’s festivities…
Fade to Black…
that is awesome. not even close on my thought process.
This was a tough one!
Wow!! I didn’t even consider that it might not have been an American-built plane!!
Like I’ve said in the past, I like to keep people busy… [;)]
