Quiz for the smart alecs…

OK.

Whole aeroplanes are too easy.

What,
where,
No clues until certain people (the “oh that’s easy” brigade) ask nicely.

Go…

Good quiz James.

It is the ‘Schrek FBA Type H’ which is in the Brussels Military Museum.

Funny thing is that I found the photo I took of it and still couldn’t figure out what it was 😀

Shame about the poor Beaufighter rotting away quietly outside, though

Going inside once the new building’s done, and who’s at fault for that? (Chorus please) the RAF Museum!

(The short version (for those that don’t kno) is the Canadians were told they were getting a Beau. It was ‘complete’ when displayed by the RAFM in the UK. When it arrived in Canada, the RAFM had stripped loads off /out including the engines. The CanAv had a hissy fit and left it outside as a reminder of perfidious albion for 30 years. Childish? Mean? Poor behaviour by two world class museums? Why, yes!)

Excellent Dodrums, yes, that’s the name of the jpg. Sadly not the a/c or it’s location. 😀 Next jpg may be called ‘no answer here’.
