It is the 44.

You can tell by this plane’s absence of windows and its shorter length that this is the prototype CL-44.

It’s your turn Loco.

Sorry for the delay.

One of the difficult ones (but not so much for the scholars around here)
Please, name the airplane and its most outstanding feature. ;)



Cheers!

It's the HFB-320 Hansa Jet  :)

The Hamburger Flugzeugbau HFB-320 Hansa Jet is an all-metal, twin-engine, ten-seat business jet that was built by German aircraft manufacturer Hamburger Flugzeugbau between 1964 and 1973. The most notable feature of the aircraft is its forward-swept wing, which is mid-mounted in the fuselage.

The tail lettering gave it away, LQ-JRH.  Currently owned by: Gas del Estado, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Right DHumphrey!



It's the first time I have not changed the registration! as a new decoy. ;)

The truth ... is that "Gas del Estado" does not exist since 1991, when the neoliberal governments of Argentina sold our natural resources for coins.
In fact, it can be seen that the aircraft has in its nose and tail the YPF logo (fiscal petroleum deposits). A company that was sold at a price of embarrassment and repurchased for twice what it was worth (including environmental liability). As you can see, our governors are business geniuses.
The photo is from 04/26/1972, it must be written off some time ago, but for your research I think that all Argentines must continue paying the tuition ... :-[

You turn now! ;D

Well done locopiston !!!

The Mil V-7 was an unusual experimental four-seat helicopter with AI-7 ramjets at the tips of the two rotor blades. It had an egg-shaped fuselage, skid undercarriage, and a two-bladed tail rotor on a short tubular tail boom. Four aircraft were built in the late 1950s, but only one is known to have flown, with only the pilot aboard.

Your turn  :)
