Developed for the Bristol Braemar triplane heavy bomber, the Bristol Pullman was a 14-seat passenger aircraft that first flew in May 1920. As with the Braemar Mk.II, it was powered by four 400 hp (300 kW) Liberty L-12 engines in inline pairs.
The Pullman was not accepted into Royal Air Force service and no commercial sales were made to civil airlines. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/bristol-pullman/ #aeroplane #aircraft #airplane #Aviation #bristolpullman #PassengerAircraft #RAF #royalairforce #triplane

First flying on 13 August 1918, the Bristol Braemar was a triplane heavy bomber designed for the Royal Air Force.
Designed to be able to bomb Berlin, the Braemar had internal stowage for up to six 250 lb (110 kg) bombs. With the end of the First World War, no production orders were placed. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/bristol-braemar/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #bomber #BristolBraemar #RAF #RoyalAirForce #triplane -
The Bristol Type 123 was a biplane fighter designed to Air Ministry specification F.7/30. It called for a four-gun fighter with the preference that it was powered by the evaporatively-cooled Rolls-Royce Goshawk. Testing revealed serious lateral instability, which re-designs failed to reduce Further development was abandoned and F7/30 was won by the Gloster Gladiator https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/bristol-type-123/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #biplane #Bristol123 #BristolType123 #fighter #RAF #RoyalAirForce

The Sukhoi Su-6 was a Soviet ground-attack aircraft developed during the early years of the Second World War by the Sukhoi design bureau. Conceived as a successor to earlier attack aircraft such as the Su-2, it was intended to provide a heavily armoured, high-performance close air support platform for the Soviet Air Forces. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/sukhoi-su-6/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #groundattack #GroundAttackAircraft #SukhoiSu6

A small number of Macchi C.205s were used by the Luftwaffe, primarily by II./JG77 in northern Italy. German interest stemmed from the aircraft’s high performance.
II./JG 77 operated Macchi C.205Vs from Oct until Dec 1943 then re-equipped with Bf109s. They found the C.205Vs radio unreliable, causing difficulties co-ordinating interceptions. Re-arming to took too long, making it difficult to turn-around aircraft quickly. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/macchi-c-205-in-german-service/ #aeroplane #aviation #Luftwaffe #MacchiC205 -
Post-war, the C.205 found a significant export customer in the Egyptian Air Force. Between 1948 and 1949, Egypt acquired approximately 62 refurbished aircraft, many converted from C.202 airframes.
These aircraft saw limited combat during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/macchi-c-205-in-egyptian-service/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #EgyptianAirForce #fighter #Macchi #MacchiMC205 #plane

Rather than using a straightforward multi-engine configuration with engines mounted on the wings, the Slesarev Svyatogor was designed to use engines housed within the fuselage that drove external propellers via a belt system.
Difficulties with the transmission system delayed the project and it was abandoned in 1921 after the death of Slesarev. The Svyatogor never flew. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/slesarev-svyatogor/ #aeroplane #airplane #aviation #bomber #SlesarevSvyatogor #Svyatogor -
The Arado Ar 234 V6 was the first four-engine prototype of the Ar 234. It used four BMW 003 turbojets in separate nacelles under the wings. It still used the take off trolly and landing skid. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/arado-ar-234-jet-bomber/ #aviation #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #AradoAr234 #bomber #Luftwaffe #reconnaissance #SecondWorldWar #WorldWarTwo #WW2

The Sukhoi Su-15 was an early Soviet jet fighter prototype developed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau in the immediate post-war period.

The Sukhoi Su-7 (1944) was a high-altitude interceptor prototype, derived from the Su-6 ground-attack aircraft. The Su-7 was a mixed-power aircraft, with a Shvetsov ASh-82FN piston engine with two TK-3 turbochargers in the nose and a Glushko RD-1-KhZ rocket engine in the tail. This mixed power approach was intended to solve the problem of intercepting fast, high-flying bombers https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/sukhoi-su-7-1944/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #fighter #jet #Sukhoi #SukhoiSu7

Cargo, I suspect.
And no doubt the Americans will continue deportation flights.
And military use.
But civilian ordinary flight looks frivolous already.Except
There's an #electric #plane flying* into a local #airfield. And a few more around.
Amusing to walk past the row of car electric chargers and see over the fence the rather bigger #aeroplane #charger. There's a coffee shop, and it is mildly entertaining.* From not very far away, yet ;(

The Mörkö-Morane was a Finnish-engineered upgrade of the French Morane-Saulnier M.S.406 fighter during WWII. Faced with rising losses in 1942, Finnish commanders decided to re-engine their obsolete Moranes with captured Soviet Klimov M-105P V-12 engines (1,100 hp) and aerodynamic refinements.https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/finnish-morko-morane-fighter-aircraft/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #fighter #FinnishAirForce #MoraneSaulnierMS406 #SecondWorldWar #WorldWarTwo #WW2

The Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe was a single-seat floatplane interceptor developed as a stopgap to protect remote island bases and amphibious forces while purpose-built float fighters were pending. It was essentially a Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero (Model 11) modified with a central float and wingtip stabilizer floats. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/nakajima-a6m2-n-rufe/ #NakajimaA6M2NRufe #aeroplane #airplane #aviation #fighter #floatplane #Floatplane #floatplanefighter #ImperialJapaneseNavy #ImperialJapaneseNavyAirService #MitsubishiA6M2

First flying on 28 December 1933, the Loire 70 was a long-range maritime reconnaissance flying boat designed for the French Navy. Seven production aircraft were ordered and along with the prototype served with Escadrille E7 at Karouba in Tunisia. An Italian air raid destroyed 3 of the 4 surviving aircraft. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/loire-70-french-flying-boat/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #FlyingBoat #FrenchAirForce #Loire70 #SecondWorldWar #WorldWarTwo #WW2

The Ilyushin Il-22 was the first Soviet jet-engined bomber to fly on 24 July 1947. Powered by four Lyulka TR-1 turbojets, it was under powered, as the engines only produced 80% of their planned thrust. As a result, the Il-22 was unable to meet its design criteria and further development was cancelled on 22 September 1947.https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/ilyushin-il-22-the-first-soviet-jet-engined-bomber/ #aviation #aeroplane #airplane #bomber #IlyushinIl22 #SovietBomber

The Fiat G.55S (silurante, meaning torpedo-carrier) was an experimental torpedo-fighter derivative of the Italian Fiat G.55 Centauro. To accommodate the torpedo, engineers significantly altered the aircraft’s underside configuration. The original ventral radiator was divided into two smaller radiators under the wing roots, creating space beneath the fuselage for torpedo attachment racks. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/fiat-g-55s-torpedo-fighter/ #aviation #FiatG55S #FiatG55 #RegiaAeronautica #aeroplane #airplane #TorpedoFighter
