The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[Moses03]

Seem to recall a photo of this one hovering with all hands hanging onto the frame. I think it was a Wout offering either here or beyond. (Where is Walter these days?).

Hi Kevin!
Refraining from replying to the challenge. This heli has a very appropriate designation and most SOH should have no difficulties coming up with details.
Am following everythng you guys do on the forum, but breaking in my new PC and working on updating my files (emptying the shoe boxes).

Walter must be practicing his "coded message" correspondence course. Alas, one should be a little more cryptic (and not use the same screen name elsewhere )

Have fun with the "shoe boxes" !

SOH-1

That's the one - so good you named it twice!

Over to you srgalahad...

 

[srgalahad]

Thanks G. I wouldn't have done so well without Wout's hint although I was headed in the correct geographical direction. So, now off in an entirely different direction/tangent...

It may have been here before but perhaps in a not-so-grainy form

Am I alone in seeing nothing?

 

[Moses03]

I see an embedded image of a cabin biplane. Maybe your settings are off PH?

 

[pomme homme]

Well, whilst it wasn't there earlier, it is there now. I think that my PC has been having a funny turn!

The fin & rudder look like copies of the Beech staggerwing, but cannot find anything else like it so far.

BG left a crumb in there to mine. I believe this is the one.

From Aerofiles:

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica]<center>[h=2]Aero-Craft[/h]</center> <small>Aero-Craft Mfg Co Inc, Detroit MI.</small> Aero-Coupe 1928 = 3pO-CB; 120hp Warner Scarab; span: 32'0" length: 24'0" load: 1000# v: 115/100/38 range: 460. F R Anderson, a USAS Brig General at the time. Convertible to an open cockpit for training use, or the seats could be removed to make a cargo/mail bay. $5,800; POP: 1 [4917], crashed in 1926.

Yes Moses I left a crumb purposely and that's what it is although there's no pic of it in Aerofiles....
Therefore your turn again

Thanks BG!

Okay, this is a definite early 1930's oddball and it did fly despite the non-photo looking photo.

 

[Moses03]

Found a better photo (well at least it looks like one) and a color drawing from a modeling magazine.

 

[lefty]

No other takers ? It is the Mihail Stabiloplan from darkest Romania. Cute,but a tad noisy, methinks !

Lefty swats away the little flea. Nice second photo.

Here's something a little more civilised - a very smartly turned-out machine...

Hi Lefty!

It's rather similar to some Waco designs except that yours has one wing less!
