'Name The Plane' - ID Make And Model For Free Bacon! (2.22.11)
Tuesday, February 22, 2011 at 09:20PM
Tossing another Name The Plane game at ya to see who can fetch up a bacon sandwich at Oshkosh 2011 by using their sharp aircraft ID skills. All you gotta do is be the first person to ID both MAKE and MODEL of this aircraft.
Your answers must go in the 'comments' area in this post, and as always, please don't use the shotgun approach to answers - only put up truly educated guesses that you've arrived at via really thinking it thru. The last NTP game on 2-12-11 only went on for 15 minutes before a winner was found... I really hope this one isn't that easy!

VFW-Fokker 614
Holger- You Are Correct - great job! It's the VFW Fokker 614, the somewhat rare and rather unusual small airliner from the early 1970's that had the engines mounted on top of the wing rather than under. I'll have a post up later with the full pic, but anyone can check it out at the Fokker 614 wiki entry
Here's the actual picture I used
First, I am always so impressed when people get these. Pretty astounding. Second, HondaJet isn't so unique after all!
Tailgear- Yeah, the deeper you dig, the more you realize that pretty much everything has been tried at one time or another : )
