Cobrahistorian Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Here's one for ya: Maybe one more.... If anyone gets this second one, I will be EXTREMELY impressed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin_sam_2000 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 It's obviously experimental, but I can't guess its name nor its manufacturer. I agree 100% that it is experimental..and based off of the partial paint scheme we can see..I would guess its a NACA aircraft. It is definately not russian...as it is flying in what looks to be the Arizona desert. I am completly unable to find any info on this at all!!!!!! Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sean I think you're on the right track - the yellow markings say "NACA" to me too. Looking at the wierd works around the wings, this appears to be some kind of VTOL/STOL project. It has the flavor of something drawn in the late Fifties, on the back of a napkin, by a couple of drunken Frenchmen and a German nürflugel designer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
