Oy! I just don't know what that first one is. Stinson? Maybe a Russian observation plane?

Second one is a DC-3 with a Lancaster in the background.

Third is: now THAT is a Fairey Firefly, with a T-28 and DC-3 in the background.

Not a Stinson It is kinda far, But you got the rest right. I would have been disapointed if you had gotten the Firefly wrong after the Fulmar.

So what is that first one? I feel I should know it, but can't think of what it is.

Close enough. It's a Mitsubishi F.1. A variant of the T.1. The first domestically designed, produced fighter from Japan since ww2.

Gloster Meteors had engines out on their wings if I remember. This is more like the gloster javelin. Anyhow, here's one back and thanks for the invite back.

Yeah, I don't really think it's a Gloser Meteor. It's not Javelin either. I'm drawing a blank, but it bugs me because I should know it.

This one, is designed by HAL, I think. Is it a HAL Marut?
