Looks like the Adventure Air Super Adventurer ?

Fascinating Wikipedia entry - 120 kits sold and only 10 registered.

That means there are 110 potential floaters out there somewhere ! I want one !!
 
Hi Mike
The Adventurer it is! :icon29:
USA design by Happy Miles and marketed under several names such as Adventure Air Ltd, Aero-Marine, LLC.
The pic sbhows an Adventurer 333 completed in New Zealand as ZK-JZZ (333 for 333hp from the GM/Chevrolet V8 engine).

The stage is all yours!
 
Going since 2008 - Nicely done!

So who posted the last one before the crash..?


Edit:

If you are new to the mystery game here is a quick set of guidelines.

-You must correctly guess before posting a new one. (Usually you wait for the previous poster to verify the answer). If you are confident on your answer, you can post a new picture without waiting but risk hearing it from the forum regulars if wrong! :173go1:

-You are allowed to remove nationality and registration numbers (to prevent easy googling of answers). You cannot add bogus markings to throw off the hunt.

-No gliders unless very unusual or of historical significance.

-Please refrain from using Google image search. This is a cheap way of identifying photos and frowned upon.


Have fun! This is not a serious match although we do take pride in being able to spot an obscure aircraft.


I think that is it. Also, don't forget to give the person who guessed your plane a beer on Henry's tab. :icon29:

Good luck spotters-

This is the Victa Airtourer 100. I believe the prototype was a timber machine - this one looks metal to me but I don't have the reg. Over to PH for a tube of Foster's :very_drunk:
 
I suspected that you'd get it, Kevin. You did, elsewhere, last time! The reason I used the Volland again is that finally I'd found a decent image of it - which is more than can be said for the previous one (which, if my memory serves me well, you described as dark, grainy and illegible!). So it's over to you, sir!
 
About all I can pass along before revealing is that a Mr. Botali had some part in the design. That and it was mentioned not too long ago in this thread!
 
The TU index mentions a Botali-Mandelli Biplan, but I can't find any other reference to or a picture of it on the web. So being a lazy so-and-so, I'll offer this up as a possible identity rather than going to the trouble of doing a reverse direction trawl through the 1938 issues of Les Ailes! However I've a nagging doubt that I've used an aeroplane of this name before and it didn't look like the one you've posted, Kevin. That one, to the best of my recollection, was, to adopt a phrase used very recently, a 'chunky wee chappie'!
 
Okay, enough with this obscure Frenchie. I did find it in Les Ailes so you are right on that Mike. It is not named for Botali though, it is the Aviana 10.

Here is the unmolested screen grab. Again, wish I could read French!

I'm off to go pick up my car from the shop so open board.
