Time well spent, I`d say, because that is correct. Well done.

Thanks.

Now feast your eyes on this beast:



No, that is not the aircraft wanting a name, I can not be that evil.





Or maybe I can......?












Seriously, no. That one is only for brownie points.

This is the quiz:

Shait, I knew I should have kept the first one as the challenge!

But I`m not giving it away just yet, other than saying that it is French...

Your controls.

Cheers,

Because I like doubletailfins very much, naturellement this aircraft also has this feature.
Now any ideas?

Well, maybe a little describtion can help you out: It's a twin-engine multipurpose aircraft from the european continent, from which only 2 were built. I think the second one was scrapped and the first one disappeared over south african airspace and still has not been found.

Took a bit of looking, but I think I found it, the Wolfsberg-Evektor Raven 257
