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.
These are similar, mostly radial piston engine powered biplanes. The lower wing is staggered and has a shorter span than the upper wing. Their wingtips are rounded. The vertical stabiliser has sharper corners and straight edges, making it nearly rectangular.
Like other GA aircraft from the 1940s and 1950s the Stinson Voyager has a tube frame covered with fabric or metal, wings braced with two struts in a triangle shape and nicely rounded wingtips and tail. The horizontal stabilisers are not braced. The top of the fuselage forms a straight line to the tail cone. It is powered by a horizontally opposed piston engine.
The small radial engine in the front and the dent in the top of the fuselage, after the wings, are two key characteristics of this liaison plane. The fuselage has a clearly visible steel frame covered with fabric, and has a nearly round cross section at the rear.
The Stinson Junior and early versions of the SR Reliant series have double strut braced high wings. Their fuselages have a square cross section. All windows are flat: two cockpit front windows, two triangular side windows and three cabin windows.
The medium-size jetliner has (nearly) the cockpit of the deHavilland Comet and rounded triangular cabin windows. While this should make it already easy to recognise, it is also the only jet airliner with two engines attached to the rear fuselage and a cruciform tail.
The Sukhoi Su-15 has delta wings through the fuselage and wedge shaped air intakes (when viewed from above or below). It also has a large diameter pointed nose and a bubble canopy.
The Sukhoi Su-24 can be regarded as the Soviet look-a-like of the General Dynamic F-111. Both twin-jet fighters/bombers have variable sweep wings, mounted high on the fuselage, and a conventional tailplane. The Su-24 has however long rectangular air intakes and the two wheels on the main landing gear.
This is a ground attack aircraft in the same categorie as the Fairchild A-10. It has a comparable configuration as the PZL Iryda, Kawasaki T-4, M346 and Alpha Jet. In particular the two-seat variant is similar, but most versions have a single seat. Also notable are the nearly straight wings.
The Su-27 variants are quite similar in appearance as the smaller MiG-29. To recognise the Su-27 look at the forward retracting nose gear, non-tilted vertical stabilisers and air intakes, the drooped down forward fuselage and the signature centre line fuselage stinger, which protrudes well beyond the engine exhausts.
The Su-7 combines highly swept wings through the fuselage, a bubble canopy and an air intake in the nose with a conical inlet body as main characteristics. For the rest it is quite standard.
