Reply: Thanks for catching that. It must have got snipped out during the cut and paste. I have made the correction. Fred Harrison Central Point, OR CORPpower/JSS/EORS Edited 1 time(s).

Author: PERichardson Missed four but I'd argue for Bulbous for 9 down. Bulldog was on F units and E8/9 units. Most spotter's guides refer to a bulbous nose for the E2.

I think bulbous is more correct for the E-2 too, but Wikipedia does call it a "bulldog" nose (and as we all know, if it is on the Internet, it must be true). Bon jour!

Reply: Actually, the E-2 nose was the first E model to be tagged with the "Bulldog" nickname. Depending on whose article you read, credit is either given to the E-2 of 1937 or the FT of 1939. Definitely, the E-2 was a design in transition. I'll give you credit for "bulbous." Posted from Android Fred Harrison Central Point, OR CORPpower/JSS/EORS |
