Off we go again - competition - what's this?

Post by GOOSE » Sun Nov 07, 2010 11:03 am

Same rules as before, correct guess gets next turn.

No shot / picture can run for more than 24 hours, so people don't get too fustrated :lol:

Hope the designation I have is correct. Can only find it listed in one place.

So what's this? Alpha numeric designation please.

Over to Robin, I think. He was first with the "SNV" link.

The site I got it from, erroneously calls it an SNX-2 - http://www.pbs.org/harriman/images/log/ ... yaksnx.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is, I believe an SNV-2, family lineage listed here - http://www.flugzeuginfo.net/acdata_php/ ... t13_en.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Here's a complete SNV-2 - http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/photo/104768.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
