Hello Dev One! Finally an easy one to close the year: Bielaiev DB-LK 1938 USSR....
Cheers and a happy New Year to all of you

[Dev One]

Well done BG, very distinctive.
Over to you to kick off the New Year

Hi Dev one happy New Year!
Let me kick off with an easy floater while I apologize for the delay

[Dev One]

Is it as simple as the Dornier Libelle I ??? Doesn't seem quite like the photos in Wiki though.

Wiki doesn't have a pic of this one, Keith.......

It is a Dornier but not a Dornier Libelle I....however you're very close!
BG

 

[Moses03]

Lefty is being a bit modest here! Not the Libelle but the Do E/1 of 1924.


Edit: With BG having presumably already shuffled off to bed, and fairly confident on the Dornier, here is a cumbersome triplane to continue on with.

Hello Moses.

A German bomber - the BFW DrN I?

 

[Moses03]

You got it Green! I'm sensing you favor the older aircraft?

Dig that fancy biplane tail. Had to have been way underpowered.

 

[Green]

Thanks Moses!

I'm sensing you favor the older aircraft?

Definitely not sir!

 

[Dev One]

The Northrop YC125 seems to fit the bill here - some pictures show it with twin main wheels & one or two with only single main wheels as here.
Keith

 

[Green]

Well done Keith!

 

[Dev One]

Thanks Green,
This is my offering of a floater thats probably quite well known to those that follow such things (sorry if its been shown before, but there's a lot of things gone in the mists of time....)
Keith

 

[lefty]

OK, I can only resist a floater for so long....

If it has weird struts and is generally over-complicated, it's probably a Brandenburg - this is a version of the C.C. with an extra wing inserted, methinks

 

[Dev One]

Lefty, Correct . Its the sole modified one A45.

Over to you....
Keith

 

[lefty]

Thanks Keith.

Here's a nice twin-

 

[Green]

Hi Lefty.

The LJW6 Codock or maybe the Wackett Gannet?

 

[lefty]

Do you want me to decide for you ???? (there are significant differences !)

 

[Green]

Sorry mate, watching a movie....

I'll try the Codock?
