 Yeah,  some of us seem to have nothing better to do than search the web for aircraft guessing games. 

Since that went by very quickly why dont you give it another shot? I dont have anything ready at this point.  Keep in mind first flight dates can be a giveaway.

Too long with no aircraft hunting, going stir crazy.

Here we go;

- Introduced in 1936

- more than 900 built

- twin engine

- was intended to operate with diesel engines

- retractable landing gear

- there were civilian and military versions

Junkers JU-86 

I think you are correct, but I think that is just part of the reason.

Spending hours trying to find the most unlikely aircraft to post makes it more difficult than most people want to have to spend the time to research.  I for one, have a better use of my time, than spending an hour or so to try and find the answer.

I have advocated before to just open one of our aircraft books at a random page and it it is a warbird that has not already been chosen that is it.

If not randomly open the page again.

Will some of those be easy to answer?

Yes, of course, but I think that might encourage more participants than just the few we now have.
