Aircraft body style quiz

I found first rather easy, but the second gets more difficult as you progress

Yep. 19 on first and only 13 on second. Better go and stand near more runways.

22/22 and 19/22 ... but why do they show a pic of the DC-8 that actually SAYS DC-8 and only have one of the four choices as a DC-8?

When I did it the answers at the end were in some cases completely wrong (like a 330 with 4 engines?) or even had photos I never saw. Seemed kinda sketchy to me.

After doing them a second time, I got 100% in both

I got the exact same results as you! I was surprised I hit 15 on quiz 2 because I used educated guesses on more than half of the questions. A lot of the sub types in quiz 2 made no sense to me though, so they were pretty easy to eliminate.

I know I got them all right on the first but then the quiz says I only got 7 and shows answers that are not what I posted.

Great quizzes. I got 21/22 on the first one and only 12/22 on the second. It's clear I'm not as good distinguishing planes that no longer fly.

The multiple choice part kills the quiz... for instance if I see a Soviet airplane that I don't 100% recognise, but the other 3 multiple choice options are Boeings, then it makes it too easy.

Quiz #2 is much more challenging.
