The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

No, the Master hails from the lowlands. I just sweep up at night and turn the lights out before locking up.

Here is a real work of art. The origin should be plenty obvious...

This is a Nieuport-Delage NiD 37C1 of 1923 with Hispano-Suiza 8Fbr engine. Only one aircraft was built.

This is the Villiers 11.

I posted another pic of this not so long ago - but it might have been in another forum..... ???
 
Hi Lefty
congratulations on the remarkably short timed reply!
However I have it (Aviafrance) as Villiers 4 not 11 which is obviously good enough for me:icon29:.
BTW this item wasn't posted as of late as far as I can remember.
Your turn

I think I am losing me leetle grey cells, as Hercule would say.. I could swear I have posted the Villiers before, but have no access currently to my files, so cannot confirm - help, somebody !

Anyway, according to Aeronefs de l'Aviation Maritime, the Viiliers 4 was a twin-float job, the single-float second prototype was named the Villiers 11.

I cannot scan properly just now, so OH please, chaps...New mobo and processor have arrived so let's hope it's a painless installation...
 
I have a photo of the Villiers that I saved on my disk on September 26th last year Mike, so no worries about your cells yet! ;)

Hello Lefty
it would be appreciated if you could scan, as soon as your PC is in order, a pic of the twin-float Villiers 4.
Anyway thanks for the information coming from such an authoritative source as les Aeronefs de l'Aviation Maritime.
