    Thanks, Alpha. I made the mistake of googling "Lelu". Boy was that a mistake! I have no idea what the new plane is, but if it is a German bomber - I am in!!
    Now I am finding it a bit difficult to erase the images ...

    When I look at the large banner, it looks like a photo taken from far above at night time with city lights twinkling. Maybe the next plane is a spy plane. So, it's possible the SR-71 (that's what I really want), or a U2 (I definitely don't want that although I respect the plane, I don't want a model of it, ha-ha). I say SR-71 not only because of the whole up-high spy plane type aspect, but because a person can somewhat see each letter and number of S, R, 7, and 1 in the symbol in the banner. Also, in that symbol, an F, and 2 can be made out to be an F-22. I'd be psyched about both ;).

    The squares look like E Flight. If I squint it looks like 20 - 20

    Stars look like Constellations, or a night time sat shot.

    Either way it's not my OV-10 Bronco!

    Im thinking. Can you smell the smoke?

ID:	51898Looks a bit different on the Motion RC website. Looks like a slightly disguised swastika and what looks like London burning below. Battle of Britain? So are we going to see a new BF109, BF110, or a He 111?

    Looks like a recon photo. I would say maybe a U-2.

    A Global-hawk would be cool as well.

    Think maybe more the pattern in the banner will give way to what it is then the ground. Also if you go to motionrc.com they've added the banner there but the map isn't the same (though it may be the same area)

    To state my reasons, "Lelu" could be Lelu harbor where there's a sunk PBY Catalina. When the US and Alies went on the offensive, "Black Cat" squadrons of PBYs would be used for night operations against the Japanese, so that could be the reason for the night imagery of an island. The only thing throwing me off is the symbols (different between the Large announcement and the small banner) Not sure yet what those are?

    That's a sexy photo of the B-1B! I love that aircraft. Although sadly I must disclose that Lelu is not a B-1B. Maybe next time, though. Keep the guesses coming! And don't forget to state what clues are leading you to guess your guess.

    With the satellite photo theme I'm thinking it's a modern plane..maybe a B-1B?

    Looks to me like an aerial recon night photo of a city possible over Europe by a Black Widow duckin out of the exposure of the air raid spot lights.
    That's my guess and I'm stickin with it.

    That or the P-61 would be RC world changing.

    Interesting guess, FieldofDreamsFlyer. Why would you guess that, based on the banner? Brandon Moon, same question.

    If it's FlightLineRC, it has to have a propeller(s) right?
