The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[fabulousfour]

After the war most of the planes were sold to a neighbor country where they were flown until 1927.

The (European) founder of the company is legendary and associated by most people with his large passenger transporters.

Zenair CH-300 registered HK-3135

 

[cthornburg]

According to the info I have it's not a Zenair. Although the name starts with a "Z"

Chris

 

[fabulousfour]

I have concflicting information about the manufacturer but the registration HK-3135 should be correct.

According to the site with the photo the aircraft is a Zenith

https://volavi.co/aviacion/historia/fabricacion-ultralivianos-colombia-wacsa (about a quarter down on the page)

but the Colombian aircraft register says it is a Zenair CH-300

http://antonakis.co.uk/registers/colombia/20140611.txt

Reg: HK-3135
Type: ZENAIR
ICAO: N/A
CN: CH-300
Owner: AC5-84-9-527
Date Reg: Cancelled

Isn't Zenair not just the earlier company designation of Zenith (see aerofiles)?

Agrocopetros “Zenith”

www.aeroandina.com/eng/historia.htm

This is what I found on this aircraft. Also looking at the wing it has an "X" as the last digit on the registration number.

Chris

That angle doesn't give a good look at the aircraft I just took the info from the site above.

Over to you Robert thanks

 

[fabulousfour]

Thanks, Chris.

On with a gull wing.
