I agree with Max, who found the second picture that I was going to put as a help. ;D

But to avoid falling into contradictions with the rules of the trivia I'll have to give it to Graeme.

Wonderfull photo search Max! ;)

Graeme your turn! ]salut[

I don´t know about that.
I have found the real photo. 

Now that, is impressive. Dunno why I thought it was the MB.3 last night.
I'd like to hand control over to you, Max.  :)

(Congrats to all involved, I enjoyed it very much. It was far not that easy as announced. As I see Graeme handles over the well-earned baton to Max who named the F-35 which is always a winner here  ;) )

No, no,
Graeme is the winner!   ]hello2[   
I think he guessed correct the mystery airplane, he should go next.

I just did that post with the F-35 as a joke. You guys know me, I am always joking around.  My life recently has been
so sad , that I try to have a few moments in my day by doing something to make everyone around me to be happy.
As the great Charlie Chaplin once said, " A day without laughter, is a day wasted in life". So I try to keep that thought
in my mind always.

Graeme go next good friend!   ]cheers[

Hello Max.
I'm sorry to read that life hasn't been kind to you lately - I do hope things improve. Like yourself I play ID sites/threads like this purely for fun and the knowledge gained.
I am particularly impressed with how you transposed the F-35 into the original image - and even including water and reflection onto it with the starboard wheel....

See what you can do with this.  :)

Cheers!

Looks Like a Ryan FR-1 Fireball without the jet engine and a corn cob radial very powerful for the double four bladed propeller :o
And is british.
Bristol centaurus engine?
Sea fury and firebrand period?

Blackburn B.48?  But it has a four blade prop, and the wing planform looks different...

It is British.
Look very carefully at the "prop".

Not a Fury, Firebrand or a Firecrest, but it is from that period.

Are all the blades meeting at 90deg?  Jet with a dummy prop?  (Still no clue what it would be)
