It's very similar to the L-4, although there are differences to the engine and the cockpit area - that apart they are clearly related. Incidentally, the very small yellow writing on the engine cowling says: "Douglas Bader Wing" underneath which is the badge and initials CAF of the Confederate (now Commemorative) Air Force. I can't trace the aircraft on their website, however, nor does there seem to be any mention of a "Douglas Bader Wing". Any assistance would be appreciated. -- Moving things in still pictures! Hi A Google search for "115302 aircraft" brings up UKWarbirds.net as a possibility which has a L18C Super Cub (PA18-95) registration 115302/G-BJTP, the owner is given as John Parkins and the location as Pershore Worcestershire England. There is also a photo or four on Airliners.net which give a construction number of 18-999 and one says it is 'Resplendent in a US Marines colour scheme. Previously registered EI-51, I-EICO, MM51-15302 (Italian Army) and 51-15302(US Military Series)' and another says fake US Marines markings. Hope this helps and doesn't just restate what you already know. -- Andrew "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." (Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society, 1895.) |
