Retake on # 3: It's the ZEPPELIN STAAKEN R.VI I think.

As for # 1: Only thing I ever heard it called was the "Bristol Fighter". Best I can do.

3 is correct, it is the zeppelin.

also, i know what "bristol fighter" you are thinking of. and you are wrong.

i will put you out of your misery on #1

Type 13 MR1

SMIDSY · « **Reply #28 on:** January 04, 2006, 01:45:05 PM »

correct. it can be destinguished by it's shiney metal skin and wing arrangement. the all-metal design was in responce to the fact that wood does not stand up well to extremes of heat and cold and humidity. also, it could be dissasembled and re-assembled with greater ease than wooden aircraft, making it simpler to transport to the exotic locations it was designed to fight in.

now come one, furbie, take a stab at the others.
