Below check the specific characteristics of the aircraft you are looking for. You can select multiple items for each characteristic. The results will be filtered automatically.
Compared to the Lockheed TriStar the DC-10/MD-11 is recognisable by the rear engine. The DC-10 and MD-11 have the engine in the tail, with a straight inlet, while the TriStar has it in the tailcone using an S-shaped inlet.
The Bf109 has a liquid cooled engine in the front and a main landing gear that retracts outward in the wing. It has trapezoidal wings and a cockpit with many flat panels. The top is flush with the top of the rear fuselage. The horizontal stabilisers are mounted on the vertical stabiliser, giving the Bf109 a cruciform tail.
A bullet with small wings powered by a rocket engine in the rear is the best description of the Me163. The gear is only meant for take-off, as it lands on a skid at the bottom of the fuselage.
The world's first operational jet fighter has its engines in long pods under the wings, like the Boeing 737-200. It has a triangular vertical stabiliser with rounded top, and a bubble canopy. The prototypes had a tail wheel landing gear, but all production versions had a retractable nose wheel landing.
The Microjet was one of the first attempts to a private jet aircraft. It has a large canopy above the two seat cockpit and a V-tail, which have upward fins on some aircraft like shown. The small engines in the rear fuselage are fed by long, narrow intake in the side of the fuselage. The exhausts are also in the sides. It has a retractable gear.
To test the concept of a reusable spacecraft with MiG design was made. Its jet engine had an intake in front of the vertical fin, that was only opened when the engine was needed. The fuselage has a sort of boat shaped underside and the highly swept wings could be canted up and inward. The MiG-105 landed on two front skids, retracted in the side of the fuselage, and one rear skid.
Not having a distinctive tandem cockpit the MiG-AT is best recognised by its rounded rectangular air intakes and cruciform tail. The two engines are attached to the side of the fuselage (like the AIDC AT-3) and have visible exhaust pipes.
Similar to other Mignet designs of the Pou-du-Ciel family, the HM360 has one parasol wing and another wing highly staggered behind the cockpit, giving it a tandem wing configuration without horizontal stabilisers. The airplane has a short fuselage, a radial piston engine and folding wings.
The parasol wings of this airplane are attached to the fuselage by a single bar that has a triangular strut at the front and rear. Cables use to keep the rest together. Other typical features are the bat-like trailing edges of the tail surfaces and the wheels with spokes.
The inners wings of these MiGs have no dihedral, while the outer wings have. Seen from above, the wings have a trapezium shape, with rounded tips. The aircraft have inward retracting main gears. The canopy is quite close to the tail. (photo: Anna Zvereva/WikiMedia)
