One advantage of storing tons of stuff in you memory you'll most likely never need to know.
If you've got enough of it something comes in handy sometime, it might just buy you beer and strippers . . .

Yay, new page, y'all got plenty space for guessing . . .

Note to self:
Put random remarks in pics to:
1) distract others
2) remind yourself of books you wanted to read

=> random stuff: gooooood

I got about halfway through that book.  I kind of got lost, though; it's pretty bizarre.  I'll have to try again one of these days.

Just to divert back to the aircraft ID, Is its one of the Czech Aero series? - the aircraft have the tail, wing and engine config of an Aero 45, however the fixed gear and conventional windscreen / canopy arent right.
If it was supposed to be easy, everyone would be doing it!

Well no luck on Franz plane... so lets see what can you buggle out of these two punks:

First one is a MiG-21 I "Analog"
No Idea about the second . . .

btw, I think it's time for a clue:
My plane was made by a German company making railway cars since 1883 and has been producing aircraft during first and second World War.

High Franz, Hello Everybody,

now, having that hint it's easy for me, as I had some interests in railway-technology in earlier times... long ago... 'bout twenty years...

Taddaaaah: for sure it's a Gotha GO 150!

Nice aircraft, FAI world record in July 1939 (hey, that's right 70 years ago...) for altitude: 8048m (about 26400 ft) one seated.

Greetings
