Very good. I make that 9/10.
i am a pretty big aircraft nerd! i wish slingsby trebuchet
was real
1-B, 2-C, 3-A, 4-C, 5-A, 6-C, 7-D, 8-A, 9-A, 10-A
Some of the other names kept me laughing haha (Caudron Enculage? George ‘the hip-hop croupier’ was behind it, wasn’t he?)
You’re messing with our heads here. Everyone knows that the Slingsby Trebuchet had two and half engines, not one. And the reverse empennage in the interplane strut bracing is unmistakable.
This is the only instance in my entire life when I haven’t cheated: BCACACDAAA. There.
Well done Ward! From a quick look over I make that a very impressive 8/10, but I’ll check it properly after I have a cup of tea.

I’ve never seen 5) before, but I think that may be the most awesome looking aeroplane I’ve ever seen in my life.
