Name This Plane...from the inside

[Luddite]

Is it OK if I post one?

Definitely American, I'm pretty sure that stick and those pedals are Curtiss.

I'll take a swipe at Curtiss Hawk.

(Just read ALL of the posts above and I know I'm wrong now!! I was convinced, too)

Looks similar to a BT-9 but not convinced...

 

[Flieger]

Well, Smithy... You are VERY close now.

Ooh! I know I know!

Want me to say?

Saab SK14!

License built North American NA-16.

I was confused by the stick. On this side of the pond, Harvards have a spade grip! That's my excuse and I'm a-sticking to it.

How about this one...

Correct! But the Sk 14 was never a Harvard so I'm not quite sure how to apply your spade grip excuse. lol

Good Work!

Nope...American built.

OK, how about a RYAN ST - PT-16/22?

Bzzzt!! Next contestant.
Second hint...it's a non-military aircraft.

Looks like a Granville Brothers product, specifically a Model Y or a Junior Sportster with the windscreen removed.

...it's got the right paint scheme, bracing wires and headrest, at least.

Correction: It's a Gee Bee Z, specifically NR77V, City of Springfield.

I know a thing but Talk about knowledge,
out standing Wingnut, impressive :eusa_clap

Way to go Wingnut! You must've caught my other post on the Golden Era Planes of Fame.

 

[KilroyCD]

A Stumper, maybe?

Have a try at this one!

Link Trainers don't count as planes, boys...

Though I bet with a big enough solid-fuel rocket shoved up its backside, one would fly just fine... or tear itself apart from overstress.

My go, my go.......
