Vickers VC.1 Viking

MKH1020 · May 18, 2020, 10:04pm

That is not a VC1

MikeB · May 19, 2020, 7:32am

Ilyushin Ил-14

Schwayne · May 19, 2020, 2:25pm

Is it a DC3.

win_win · May 19, 2020, 9:31pm

I’m stumped on this one. I have to agree, it looks like a VC.1 Viking, but I guess not.

Scottie · May 19, 2020, 9:32pm

Convair 340

MKH1020 · May 20, 2020, 1:20am

@MikeB, it is an Il-14 indeed.

Wait, Lufthansa operated Il-14s?

If you go to histocal fleet on Wikipedia you won’t find it there… Something is odd.

Well, after the division of Germany, West Germany named their airline “Lufthansa”, and East Germany named their airline “Lufthansa”. As you can see, there were problems, especially considering they used the same branding. The West soon trademarked it’s name. Forcing the East to rename it’s airline to Interflug.

I went there to look for it, I even counted the windows and features of a Vickers with the picture, Lmfao. BTW, the Vickers has 7 windows and the picture only has 6. I thought it was a configuration thing, lol.

To confuse you even more, my challenge will be this:
