 | This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |
It is definately a MiG.15, it has only 2 streamliners (or whatever they are called) on each wing, a MiG.17 has 3.KGyST wrote:Padidiver:
I think on the first pic there is a MiG-15, the 17 has a more rounded wingtip.
But: where did You shoot this aircraft?
Thanks

Hm, I knew that word for them, but thought that was one of those Dutch/English inventions, like "heatwaves" and "overheadsheet". Any native English speakers around here that can conform that wingfence is the winning word??TAZZ wrote:The "Streamliners" are called : wing fences....

Not a native speaker however: Mechanics of Flight by AC Kermode, page 352 states:`On heavily swept back wings fences are often fitted.... and designed to check any spanwise fow of air along the wing, for this is likely to cause a breakaway of the flow near the wingtips and so lead to tipstalling.`marcel32us wrote:Hm, I knew that word for them, but thought that was one of those Dutch/English inventions, like "heatwaves" and "overheadsheet".
