The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

On the appropriate Wikipedia site, 'Caproni Ca120' is wondrously rendered by Google Translate as 'approximately 120 goats'. :sheep:
 
I'm tied up for a bit.....floor is open for anyone wishing to post. Also, does anyone know what year the CA.120 first flew? I'm guessing around '35, but I'd like to know the correct year if possible. :mixedsmi:
 
Oh dear, one of those Russian designation horrors !

The Semenov/Syemyenov or Polikarpov PM-1, or P-2, built by the Aviachim de Moscow, Aircraft Plant No 1. Flown by Chebanov. Cigarettes by Sobranie.....
 
It looks like a French build with those crooked wings. Must be pre 1946, otherwise Wout would have showed up by now.:icon_lol:<o:p></o:p>
 
European, but not French. First flight 1949, so Wout must be elsewhere ! Busy fending off those stroppy persons in another forum, methinks, but I don't go there any more......

The prototype of this machine is apparently under restoration.
 
Hi Mike :salute:
I was hiding `cause I dunno.
The only one I can think of is the Lombardi LM-7, but the u/c seems different.
 
Sorry for this one.
It is not a true homebuilt, not from USA and must be the last in flying condition (almost).
I did not remove registration marks, because there were none when picture was taken.
Use your imagination and see what you can recognize.
 
From another angle. The main u/c units are very similar to those of the original (limited production).
 
it is an Aero HC-102 with modifications to forward fuselage/cabin and tail. Check the u/c.
Open House, please :jump:
