'QuickPic' is a new feature I'm trying out where I post an interesting aviation pic for you to check out from a random account over at flickr.com. There won't be a lot of info from me - just enough to set you on a journey to find out more if you're intrigued with the pic.
From flickr.com/photos/kd85/: This pic is of an airplane I just learned about last night. @RunwayGirl posted a quick video challenge on twitter to ID the airplane she was sitting in at the recent Paris Air Show. You could only see a bit of the aircraft, but it had some very distinctive features that I figured would make it quick to research. It took me an hour (much longer than I expected) to figure out it was the Polish built EM-11C Orka. I admit I'd never heard of it, but I really like the thinking behind the design.
So, click the pic above to see it over at flickr... or click the link under the pic to see it in the original really large size. QuickPic images will also lead you to the flickr account of people with lots of other interesting pix to check out. Give it a try... and I hope you enjoy : )
As an added bonus, check out the Orka video below to learn more about this unique composite twin pusher with a couple Lycoming IO-360's and outer wing panels that fold to make it easier to hangar. (I hope you like piano music) - and here's the manufacturer website: marganski.com.pl
