• 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.

No, Mike. It's from closer to home. A licence built version of something much better known. Re-engined, this example survived until 1958 in a European country that no longer exists.
 
Chris has it :icon29:. It's the Bulgarian DAR-9 Siniger, a licence built FW-44, with a Walter Minor engine whilst in post-war service with the Yugoslav Air Force as YU-CEN.
 
A couple I had recently found in my standby list already taken before. Search said this not used yet.
