I'll go one better on the 38. It's a later version has the early
models had a rounded control wheel

It's going to be impossible to fool this crowd, but here goes. Two pictures. Which of the following is correct:

(A) Both are models.
(B) Only #1 is a model.
(C) Only #2 is a model.
(D) Neither is a model.

#1:

#2:

August

And the buzzer says 'C'!

The Pup's definitely a model because the real structure's not like that inside. I'm going that the Jenny's real because the structure looks right, and the prop's about the right size for th real thing and too small for a scale model.

The Duck's real. Where is it?

Hmmmm, i dunno Jerry, I think the duck is fake.

Well?

P.S. On the Duck, isn't that the one that was on display in Peru and was later scrapped ?

Chris Brame is correct, the Duck was a real airplane.

This particular Duck never saw military service in Peru, but was instead used by an evangelical group for medical and re-supply missions in the jungle regions during the 1960s, IIRC.

The photo shows "Amauta" at a park in Lima and yes, it was eventually scrapped.

Sooooo, how am I going to know to press 1 or 2, if I do not speak English????

The Iranian F-14 Tomcat and F-4 Phantom are both Models.........all be them really well executed ones.
