Andre27 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2006 Since no one else wants it, Kellett XR-8. Really a nice-looking helicopter for its time. Logan Hartke Correct. I agree with Logan it's a funny looking helicopter sorta like a big bug.. Logan's next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Logan Hartke 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2006 (edited) Yeah, weird to see Kaman-style rotor system on a non-Kaman helicopter. Weird to see it in action at all, but weirder to see it on a non-Kaman. Anyway, here's a pretty easy one. If it proves too difficult, I'll start showing more angles.

Andre27 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2006 Is it the Cessna A-37B Dragonfly? I'm not entirely sure because of the angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Logan Hartke 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2006 No it's not, but I guess it looks similar. The Dragonfly has fuselage-mounted engines and could likely reside under one of this thing's wings. Logan Hartke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freedom 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) It's a US WWII jet. If the war would have gone on for a year or so more it would have seen action, but it never did. Was also the first aircraft-carrier based jet fighter. Edited December 17, 2006 by Freedom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was also the first aircraft-carrier based jet fighter. What? I think you have the wrong history. Carrier-based fighter? This thing was a monster. I've never read anything of the sort. XF-87? Very good. Your turn. Logan Hartke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
