Crazymainer US Navy Quiz #6

Turbocharged Jumo 004….

Hey Phil,..

Ancient proverb- “He who hesitates is last (or lost)”… 😀
Anyway, I find Crazymainers quizzes fun and challenging.

I love the pics you produced,..he was definitely I pioneer of unusual designs.
Not sure about a prop in the middle of the fuselage though… 😮

Cheers
Chris

Doh Doh, Beaten by the Turbo Charger again.

Yes Wright Planes don’t you just love all the makes and specs 😀 , Don’t forget the licence built ones too Turbo :rolleyes: , I must admit I too was stuck up till I started looking up early Plane builders, And came across Edson.F.Gallaudet 1871-1945 😉 , Seems he and Glenn Curtis together really did get things happening in the U.S. way back then, Here’s what I put together for your Answer Rob 😉 , But Chris stole my thunder(Bugger :dev2: ), Cheers Lads, Tally Ho! Phil. :diablo: ( Keep them coming Rob)

woo hoo….!!!!

Just send the T-shirt to TNZ, c/- Miramar, Wellington, New Zealand… 😀

Dunno if my brain can handle it, but go on, bring it on…

Also, when you and Setter coming to my neck of the woods?

TNZ

About Bloody Hell…

Okay Crazymainer,…this is getting a bit of a hit or miss affair.

The only other reference I have to a Wright on floats is a Wright Model B, possibly a B-1.

TNZ

Well TNZ,

About Bloody hell time 😀

Are you ready for #7 :diablo:

Gallaudet D-1

TNZ

Finally TNZ

Okay, CM,
that # 1 is starting to become a pain in the a$$.

Think it might be a Gallaudet..

If not,….please, please…1 more hint…

TNZ

Yes its a Gallaudet now can you name the model type and we are still looking for the Wright model type 😮

Cheers Crazymainer

Okay, CM,

TNZ

OK Guys One more………..

OK Guys,

here is one more clue,

The company starts with a G

Strombird hope you are feeling better 😀

Also we still haven’t got the right type on the Wright Bird, so lets review its a Wright but not a R nor a CH model.

Cheers Crazymainer

ooh ooh one left, Sick, But might have a try, Back later, Cheers all, Phil.

Ah okay, I just copied and enlarged the photo. With a bit of PS, it looks like the prop is buried in the middle of the fuselage. The floats are on the extremities of the wings with a single main float.

mmm,..this is proving difficult…

TNZ

Well……………

Okay,….. guess # 56,789…..

Is it a Paul Schmitt seaplane ?

TNZ

TNZ,

Time for # 56,790……..

One more hint look at where the prop is on this plane

Cheers Crazymainer

Okay,….. guess # 56,789…..

TNZ

Ah just what are you trying to tell me ?? 😀 😀 😀

Okay back to the drawing board….
