What skill level did you try, and what was your score?

[Dave Homewood]

I don't believe it. I just tried the Hard level, guessed almost half of them because I'd never heard of half the planes, (while the other half were fairly easy) and I somehow got 22 from 24 right! Wow. Good guessing.

[Dave Homewood]

I got 19 from 24 in the Very Hard section. I really don't know much about Russian and Eastern bloc postwar planes, nor 1950's/60's US Navy jets either. They're hust so boring compared with WWII stuff.

Well I got 22 out of 24 in the Very hard Section.

I got the Mig-23 and Mig 27 mixed up (not difficult as they're essentially the same aircraft) and a very obscure pre-war Japanse dive-bomber.

I thought I did okay.

The easy one was nearly too easy I thought.

Thanks for the link.

I tried the very hard section several times, often working on the basis of elimination, I was going to keep going til I got 100% (Solely in order to skite) but after 6 or 7 goes with a max of 23/24 it got a little boring looking at obscure eastern Bloc ugly machines so I left it there!
really good test though!

Time to gloat.............

First time on V.H - 22/24
Second time on V.H - 24/24

I fluked some guesses. ;D

In "very hard" I managed 22/24; but I don't necessarily think that indicates any real skill! I'm off to buy my Lotto ticket now! ;D

I'd like to chuck in a piccie of a Bennett Airtruk just to see how many 'non-Kiwi' people can guess that?!!!

I remember seeing them fly out of Ardmore when I was a kid...very ungainly looking but boy could they turn !!!

The prototype was orginally made out of Harvard bits including a radial...now that one was super-ugly !!!
