38 out of 40 and then the site locked up...

both of the ones I didn't get were foreign odd balls also...

I mean who cares about French, Italian or Spanish Aviation 'creations'?

46 but several were WAG. A few of the pictures were with markings of countries that never had them. I don't thing the nazis had any Douglas Demons but you never know. I've seen pictures of P-39s and Brewster Buffolos with german markings. The Finns had some of them.

46 out of 48, only because it's multiple choice, and I knew what the other choices looked like. Or, the national markings gave it away.

I missed 5. One forgets how many other planes there were besides the well known ones.

Stand by for Starman, I'm sure he'll provide a dissertation and of course he'll also get a perfect score.

Not much of a quiz. I don't know a Zero from a Spitfire and I could get all but 2 up to 24 planes. Maybe it got harder as the quiz progressed, but they did a good job showing the country of origin on the plane, then you could tell by the name from there.

missed two. Most were instantly recognizable or could be figured out by looking at all the choices and plane markings

I quit about 2/3 through. Got to one question and asked for the hint. They said it started with "B." Duh! Only one of the choices started with that letter. Asked for another hint and they said I had to watch an ad first. Bye.


Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.
