Identifying the unidentified

Post by tiger tim »

Hey all, just found the impdb and I thought I could help ID some planes. I was going to just edit the articles but for fear of ruining them I'll just put names here and someone more knowledgeable can put it all where it belongs.

Erotikon - Airco DH.6

Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media - Avro Anson (either Mk. I or Mk. III as identified by the rectangular cabin windows and distinctive Cheetah engine cowls)

Sous le signe du taureau - Bellanca Pacemaker. I don't know if Francesco de Pinedo crashed it twice or if this is a different angle of the same crash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gpB9KLd ... ure=relmfu Note the large Italian flag on the rudder in both cases.

The Blue Max - Caudron C.270 Luciole

Vive la France - That sure looks like a DeHavilland Mosquito going over the Arc de Triomphe

Waterworld - Helio Courier

No idea on the rest but I hope what I've written above will help.

Wow, thanks for the information.

I would suggest having a go at editing the pages yourself. Just delete everything between the '==' and replace it with the most accurate information you have on the aircraft.

If anything does go wrong it can be undone or re-edited so no worries.

Wow welcome and thanks Tim! Fabulous information.

Yeah, don't worry about ruining anything. Give it a shot. If you can't or really don't want to, just let us know. If there is anything that Bthebest or I can do to help, let us know.

Again Welcome!

Alrighty, I'll give it a shot when I have the time. I assume my best bet is to just use some other page as a template, right?

Yeah, that's great.

Sorry it took so long for your post to get approved. Slipped through the net somehow.

X2! Sorry man, that is not normal.

A lot of people do just that. Use any other created page as a template to copy and paste, then edit. You can also use the template created specific for new page building located in the Guidelines section of the New Users page.
