There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

It was a really easy quiz, got 49 out of 49 correct.  For the most part, you could tell the plane model by the insignia.

The only one that is questionable is #10. Looks more like a P-26 than what they say is the answer.

     48 out of 49, some of those choices were kind of obscure :)

Or simply by eliminating the options you know from the list.   A photo of a biplane that includes Hawker Tempest and Mitsubishi J2M as options has already reduced the actual answer choices from four to two.

Got 49/49...well truthfully you have to give a wrong answer to at least (depends how you look at it) two questions to get "all correct" because the stupid quiz doesn't have its types right.

Along that P-26 they try to pass off as a A5M Claude, they have trouble recognizing a P-43 Lancer from a P-64 replica made out of a regular T-6/SNJ. Also that Avia B-534 was a smaller scale replica far from the real thing.

Is it me, or did this feel like a click-bait but I was curious to see how many aircraft I knew from WWI -> WWII.

Got 40-49 without referencing...and when I did - 100% - but that defeats the purpose.

We saw photo's :
- from in-game (PC?) WTH.
- had incorrect country markings
- were of so poor quality, could of been a Sopwith Camel but was a SpadVII.  :lol

One thing is for sure, we're all WWII aircraft history buffs. :D
