Beaufort it is! Thought the head on view would make it tricky. Here she is from the side.

See what you know about this pic just for fun not Really that hard but it is interesting...

Isn't that a Faerey Firefly or some such thing? A RN recon plane?

Sorry, I didn't read Terminus' answer.

Looks like a Panzerfaust hanging from the wing, though.

We talk about war movies alot in this forum, why don't we make this a short thread on "The Blue Max"? What are the feelings out there about that one?

[JeffroK]

Its an Australian made Beaufort being booked for speeding by some Yankee MP!

It is. The Bü 181C3 was a "tankbuster" variant with four Panzerfausts mounted on the wings.

I prefer Pearl Harbor to be honest.

Found this on google ww2 planes, strange interesting piece of junk in germany lol...

[Erkki]

Blohm und Voss BV 141 (the only WW2 German manufacturer which had both of the 2 letters in the designation capitalized).

Reconnaissance aircraft, saw action in the East Front(in Lapland at least).

I think I'll name it....."Bob".[:D] In keeping with WITP tradition. [:D]

[wdolson]

The BV-141 got beaten out by the Fw-189. The specification was for a recon plane that had only one engine but had excellent visibility in all directions. The only way to do that was to build an asymmetrical plane. The BV-141 was the only plane entered in the competition that actually met the spec.

It had good performance, but they went with the more conventional looking Fw-189. Plus the Fw-189 used Argus engines which were not strategically important and the BV-141 used the BMW-801 which was in high demand for the Fw-190 program. Junkers also wanted as many BMW-801s they could get for the higher performance Ju-88s.
