Dave Fleming Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Anyone know what the aircraft in the background is? http://images.google.com/hosted/life/f?q=s...40505219ae00e76 Walrus? Edited January 14, 2011 by Dave Fleming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Ogilvie Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) I'd say Barracuda... Although pic taken 1941? Hmmm... EDIT - I'm a numpty - it's a Walrus Iain Edited January 14, 2011 by Iain (32SIG) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhaselden Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 It's a Walrus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Eisenman Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yep, a wingless Walrus. You can see the engine up on the struts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitfire Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yup I'll go with Walrus as well but I must admit I nearly went down the Barracuda route with Iain. Cheers Den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Ogilvie Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Indeedy - I initially saw the fin - and that's very similar to Barracuda (that's my excuse anyway! ) You can also see distinctive two pane cockpit side window - in slid back position.

Dave Fleming Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yeah, my first thought was Barracuda as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 never mind the aircraft - check out the barnets. Now then luvly boys, them is what I is callin a propah short back and sides. Also notice the "gaped bum cheeks" inside profile to the lower air intake on the Buffalo cowl - never seen that before. Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
