VL Pyörremyrsky, thanks to the well recognizable engine & google :D

That is correct.

That's an interesting plane, never seen it before.

Here's another oldie :

Looks a bit like the LaGG-3

[Nokia]

It's soviet right?

[NEON DEON]

Well gee!

A Dewoitine D.520 or its prototype?

[Nokia]

I thought it was that at first but the plane in the pic has too many exhaust pipes and the prop looks wrong....

Maybe its the 521 with the rolls royce engine then.

Was the guy who painted that plane on LSD ? :p

[Schroeder]

Nope, you just have to inhale the exhaust gases for a few seconds (preferably during the startup sequence of the engine). That is much cheaper than buying any stuff.;)

Hawker P.1081

The P.1081 was fully redesigned with swept tail surfaces and the jet exhaust through the rear of the fuselage. The second P.1052 VX279(the plane in the pic), was rebuilt and flew on 19 June 1950. It crashed on 3 April 1951 flying from Farnborough killing the pilot Sqn Ldr T S Wade. Experience with the P.1081 supported the development of the Hunter.
