Plane Spotting - The Quiz

Smokie. When Christian Bale is stood on the roof and the USAF pilot waves to him...is it a Mustang?http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IKbg7RmW8rY&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DIKbg7RmW8rY

That's weird to see him as a young lad. I never saw that movie. I only know Christian from American Psycho and Batman.

Not bad in Captain Corelli's Mandolin with Nicolas Cage either.

Co-incidentally, Bale's father was a commercial pilot.

Dying to know if its a Mustang.

any assistance appreciated.

Cadillac of the Skies.

FANTASTIC.

thank you kkk

[Tywais]

Fab plane, my favourite.

Agree. Still get chills seeing one operating. V-12, 1720 HP Rolls Royce Packard engine. I understand when taking off at full throttle you nearly have to stand on the rudder to keep it on the center line due to the huge thrust.

[SinglePot]

Rule Britannia with a bit of US assistance. FANTASTIC.

Rolls Royce Packard eh. No wonder they called it a Cadillac.

V8 or V12 ok by me.

Let's hope we've still got a chance against China.

Per ardua ad Astra.

Semper fi would be appropriate as well...

As this being the Plane spotting quiz and all, I have been given the rare opportunity to having being escorted along the Suvarnabhumi grounds to reach my plane 3 months ago.

(The reason why the escort has been given is that I was annoyed to wait and went back to get a fresh B200 tuna sandwich, I came back late... very late)

In front: my annoyed wife and another couple that was late for the flight as well.

It felt very special and managed to get some rare shots.

I was very excited when I saw this propeller plane still on active duty

Aircraft type and carrier name, please.
