red750 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Not a Howard. A two seats side by side plane, 5 variants, one variant converted to tandem seating and used by a small number of airlines as an instrument trainer.
Methusala Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 The red aircraft in post 1769 is a Reality Escapade, English version of the Just Escapade from America. The story can be found here. The tail group in the Escapade are angular whereas the red aircraft you pictured have rounded extremities. I have an A Model Karatoo and it looks an image of the shown aircraft (except for the nosewheel), so Red, I believe that you are mistaken. Don
red750 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 so Red, I believe that you are mistaken. Don Don, Here is the unretouched image: and here is the G-INFO record of the registration. and here is the link to the airport-data record from which I obtained my information and the image: http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/G-CDIZ.html I don't think I am mistaken.
Methusala Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 G'day Red, The image of an Escapade in the quoted reference shows an aircraft with a small 1/4 window behind the door. It has, as I said , squared off empennage members and, quite frankly, looks not similar at all, to the aircraft shown in your post. Don't mean to be at all aggressive about this and enjoy your posts. Regards Don.
red750 Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 #1774 is a Rearwin Cloudster, wiki story here. Next -
red750 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 The blue and white jet is a Promavia F1300 Jet Squalus. This next aircraft is without a photo, that would be too obvious. The Boeing 747 and A380 have two decks. What aircraft had three decks? I mean actual aircraft, not those concept photoshop images or concept illustrations. Should be easy.
red750 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 That's not what I'm thinking of. If you count the cargo hold of the two aircraft in the OP, they could be considered triple deckers. The aircraft I have in mind has three rows of windows.. 1
red750 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 Not sure what's funny Dave. I will post images in two days if not guessed.
kasper Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Don’t think the breguet Sahara has three rows of windows ... does it count that the windscreens were in the middle between the deck lines?
red750 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Sorry kasper. Stay tuned - image this evening.
kasper Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Well I’m intrigued. I don’t think it’s any of the old flying boats - the biggest of them was the SR princess and it only had 2 rows. The Beverley has three levels but was a transport. I recall a pic of a French multi decker from reviewing 1950’s magazines back in the 1990’s for a job I had but I’m stuck ?
red750 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Click here to link to the photo of the aircraft with windows on three levels.
kasper Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Challenge! [ATTACH]41829[/ATTACH] But the third level was the pilots and crew. He already said they don’t count. Or the breguet Sahara would have complied with three levels.
djpacro Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 The original question was simply “What aircraft had three decks?” I don’t know much of the German language but it seems to me that Driedecker is “three decks”?
red750 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 By using the 747 and A380 as examples, I think the meaning of decks as floor levels was implied, not wings. Then there was the reference to the cargo decks, so I think the intent of the question was clear, if not the semantics. And I was using English, not German. Sorry Dave. 1
red750 Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 OK. Back to the usual format of identifying photos.
red750 Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Seaplane = Dornier Do X Dp, did you read earlier posts? PMc suggested the Do-X as the answer to the three rows of windows question.
Deskpilot Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Dp, did you read earlier posts? PMc suggested the Do-X as the answer to the three rows of windows question. yep, missed that.
