Plus points to you, P51, for knowing your classics  8)

Of course you still need to find the plane in order to win the big prize: the right to bother the rest of us with an oddity of your own choice.

And loco, you are not entirely off the mark. If you can guess the configuration, you may have chance to find it. Although the quality of the picture is quite miserable, the plane is from a fairly civilized country - first flight 1970.

I take the silence as a surrender.

This experimental plane is an Aereon 26, a hybrid design, part airship, part conventional aircraft in order to investigate lifting body design.







This means Open round

Curtiss sold all the XP-46 information for $ 56,000 to a company called North American Aviation...  :o
What would they have done with it? ;)
