• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

This early sport plane performed well by all accounts on a 30hp engine. Later crashed on Long Island, NY without injury to the pilot.

There is a photo of the land plane version at Aerofiles.
 
Thanks, Kevin, that was a tricky one! :bee:

Here's another little floater, let's see how long it will last.

Indeed, Mike, it is the Scheldemeeuw. :encouragement:

Thought that the view from the side and the brilliance of the picture might puzzle you a bit :very_drunk:

Over to France, please. :icon29:
 
Thank you, Robert. If I may be given a little time, I'll try to come up with something interesting tomorrow. I regret to say that I've nothing immediately on the stocks.
 
And survives to this day ! The Blake Blue Tit. I like the fact that the engine was obtained from Avro, together with another for spares, for the vast sum of £6.
 
That's the bird, Mike. Registered 67 years after its first flight! Apparently under restoration near Kington, in Herefordshire - having been acquired from the Shuttleworth Trust when it was selling off the family silver! Over to the land of the wild mountain thyme.
 
Search facility not working for me so I'm not sure if this one has floated past here before.....

Ahh, yes, Carlo, one of the less-well-documented Cant machines.

Over to you - :very_drunk: I hope it is not too hot in Tuscany just now ??

No it is actually very pleasant…..unfortunately I cannot carry on as I'm right now in hospital (not a very good situation for a Sunday) for a protracted check-up…..please bear with me
I love you all
Carlo
 
Hope your checkup went well Carlo.

Here is a new mystery in case you are unavailable for a stretch of time. We can fit you back in when you return. :loyal:
