In honour of my hubby joining the site - I thought I'd set a quiz on military aircraft. Say what you see as they say on catch phrase!!!! (If the pictures work!!!!) 1.  2.  3.  4.  5.  6.  7.  8.  9.  10.  For a bonus point - which one of the above have I seen crash into the sea!!! (Pure guesswork for anybody else - Mickthehammer you're not allowed to answer the bonus question!!!!) |

1. Focke Wulf
2. Meschersmitt ME109
7. Supermarine Spitfire
Bonus I think is No5. which might be a Hurricane
(sorry about the spelling, proves I haven't googled yet though)

WOW - these were quick replies!!!!
Q's replies:
1 - Yes
2 - Yes
7 - Yes
Mickthehammer's replies
2 - Yes but Q got it first!
3 - Yes
5 - Yes
6 - Yes
7 - Yes but Q got it first!
8 - Yes
Sav's replies
9 - Yes
Q and Sav both got the bonus question wrong.
Q = 3 points
Mickthehammer = 4 points
Sav = 1 point
So No. 4 and 10 to get - and the bonus question.

BB Reaper 10. No Sav 10. Yes Well done Sav. That was the red herring - apparently it's a concept plane. I didn't know that!!!!!!  Also Sorry Q - but I've been reliably informed that the answer to No1 is only half right. So only 0.5 points for that. If you (or anybody else) can give the proper name then 0.5 points still available on that one. The table now stands at: Q = 2.5 points Mickthehammer = 4 points Sav = 2 points Still waiting for an answer on No4 and the Bonus Question - and the correct full name for No1.!!!! |

Thought KP was right with the Hawk, only not in the red livery we are familiar with, will have another think.
Re the crashed jet, the only other likely suspect is the harrier, I know one crashed at an air show a few years back.
