for Mike on the sad PZL.4. The photo is a little deceiving without the engines in place.

Thanks, Kevin

Here's a sporty-looking number..

 

[lefty]

'My favorite era for aircraft is from about 1927 to 1937.'


This one fits into that period !

Hi Lefty!
Does she have anything to do with Caudron by any chance?
BG

 

[lefty]

Not to the best of my knowledge, BG. The designer of this one was killed, but the basic design was further developed under another name.

 

[Moses03]

This Regnier powered beauty is the Maillet Nennig MN-A.

 

[lefty]

That's the one - are there any colour pics around ? Presume it's blue.

to Texas.

 

[Moses03]

I doubt we will ever know the real color. Blue sounds nice to me!

How about this grief stricken monoplane? Don't get too bent out of shape on it...

 

[Baragouin]

mmm....it looks like a Sukhoi Su.1. Her turbochargers were never that reliable....
BG

 

[Moses03]

Correct BG. Please proceed.

 

[Baragouin]

Thanks Moses
Here's a very easy one....

[lefty]

Pander E ?

 

[Baragouin]

Actually Pander EC11 but that's good enough for me

[lefty]

I apologise in advance for posting this - a very boring GA specimen -but I'm getting a bit desperate....

 

[lefty]

Not American, or European.

Hi Mike :salute:
Nothing boring about the Nihon (Itoh) N-62 Eaglet, I think
Can you disclose which JA is on the side?

 

[lefty]

Thought this might tempt you out of your lair, Walter ! JA3216 she is.....

Thank you Mike !

This one had its origins in the 1960s (under a different name).

The hiSTORY of this one (not the plane, but the basic design) starts in San Antonio, Texas in 1962

This is N31AE, the Omega III of 1997 by Brent Brown. Work started 1962 as the Palomino single-seater by San Antonio Aviation Co and registered N40J. In 1966 N40J became a tandem 2-seater by Palomino Aircraft Associates. Development was halted till 1994 when N40J became the Omega II by Integrated Systems Aero Engineering. They sold 12-13 kits, but all were recalled. Seems N31AE was the only one to be completed, as Omega III. Quite a development considering the original N40J had a 100h engine and N31AE a 280hp Continental.


Since I`m in a selfish moody, today try this one.
