• 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.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Thanks Robert.

On with a curious photo....

The image with an armed guard made me think the picture was taken in Belgian Congo. As the Belgians flew almost every aircraft ever manufactured, this doesn't help a lot.

But is it perhaps a Douglas DC-6A Liftmaster?

Cheers,

Uli has it. :guinness: The last aircraft design from Breda I believe.


One of my favorites. Such a pleasing layout.

Some what ifs had it gone into production.

One microlight manufacturer that has taken the British climate seriously is Aeolus Aviation of Reading, Berkshire. The company's first excursion into the field features an enclosed cockpit, conventional controls, and has a realistic cross-country performance.
First flown in October 1982, the Aeolus has now accumulated more than 30hr, during which the whole performance envelope has been fully explored. A single-seater, the aircraft is powered by the popular 333cc two-stroke Fuji Robin engine of 30 h.p.

Open House please :wavey:
