DasBeav Actually, I googled "british ww2 pusher-prop aircraft with canard wings" and on images saw the exact picture. (Bing is a timesaver) My question is fairly easy (Just read it). Who designed a plane in "prison" and what was the plane?

Who designed a plane in "prison" and what was the plane?
One was the "Colditz Escape Glider":
The glider was assembled by Goldfinch and Best and 12 assistants known as "apostles", in the lower attic above the chapel. The runway was to be constructed from tables and the glider was to be launched using a pulley system based on a falling metal bathtub full of concrete, using a gravity-assisted acceleration to 30 mph (50 km/h).
I want to say Semyon Lavochkin and the La-5...

You got it, Beav!
Crazy's hint was a great help wasn't it?
I'm sure you found this link as I did:
http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail-page-2.asp?aircraft_id=1439
So let's hear your puzzeler!
modelcrazy I saw that last night while looking up the Aerodyne, so I won't answer this one.

LOL!
I'm glad that I was not the "Test-Driver" in that thing, not if it was like the Ascender, which it closely resembles!
The only thing they left out was "pusher-props", like the USAF XP-55
Sorry, carry on guys!
E2 has to be.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

This might be an easy one
Yep! that's it. back to you TJ.
modelcrazy OK, I have another picture for you. What is this plane?

mississippivol Never built a Bison, has there ever been one molded? It would look wild on a contest table.

Ha, not sure I do either, but I'll come up with something.
We answered at the same time! I'll concede it to you. I don't have a good question at the moment anyway.
Ohhh Ohhh I know, I know. Douglas XB-42
Dang it Too late!
xb-42 Mixmaster?
Well, here I go. Name that plane:
I'll accept the Bison.
MC, thanks but the Harrier has one engine. Good on you, broad knowledge there.
Bison isn't the answer I had in mind which is the Sud Vautour, but as good and probably closer to the Stratojet.
Anyone ever built a Bison model?
MississippiV, your turn.
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Hmmm, Harrier?
That's just a SWAG though .
No. I wouldn't consider the B-52 a true tandem.
Yep that would be my guess . ..B-52 .
If you hadn't put in the caveat of multi engined JET, I would have guessed the B-26 testing the fisability of such an arrangement.
Thanks, PF! See, this is cool. I learned something that I did not know.
So here is mine:
What multi-engined jet bomber, a contemporary of the B-47, shared the same landing gear arrangement? This one was a high production model, not a curiosity.
