The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

But I'll have a stab at an I.Ae 31 Colibri.(rear cockpit doesn't look like any pics I have seen, but everything else fits including the tail livery !)
 
the IAe.31 Colibri it is. Reason for the different canopy is because the third example was completed with a transparent rear cockpit section and cut-down rear fuselage.:icon29:
 
There was a good site for Argentinian aircraft which seems to have disappeared.....

Anyway, this substantial machine is not Argentinian. Or even South American.
 
Texas wakes ! Waffles, eh ? Mussels and fries, more like, in Belgium.

SABCA S.47 it is. Extra :icon29: to wash down the mussels if you tell me what it was derived from (without looking it up !)
 
Not sure what it was derived from without digging around. Is a big beast though.

This one will last about 5 min...
 
Have seen this one as the Viceroy by McKissick or Price.
A 6-seat "biz-plane" modified from a Vultee BT-13. Must be nice if you have a big family. The aircraft was offered for sale around 2007, registration N62571, so may still be around
 
Ha ! Floaters are lefty country - this one is the Ellison Gweduck, which I think is indeed up-to-date - it has only just flown for the first time.
 
A resounding thud!

This is an early 1930's American effort, the Rankin EX-1. (Thought it had a European look to it).

How about another twin?
 
From an American one-off to a Brit ditto.

G-AEOG, the Hordern-Richmond Autoplane.

Not a resounding success - with two 40hp motors, hardly surprising !
