The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

OK, time to put this one (and me) to bed. It's the Hoefelmann CH-1 Schatzie from Mineral Springs, Tx.

Walter knew this one, and its subsequent identity crisis, so over to him......:very_drunk:
 
Thank you Mike :encouragement:
Viewing the tall/narrow undercariage on this one, the designers may have looked at the Spitfire/Bf-109 for ideas. (that is not a clue)

Well you dragged us there screaming and kicking - it's the Medwecki M9. Perhaps if I hadn't convinced myself it was Italian......
 
Hi Mike :encouragement:. Well done and I hope I did not do too much while dragging, screaming and kicking. The perfect way of keeping your (and other forumers`) attention
The M9 by Józef Medwecki from Poland it is :very_drunk:

When you google you may find another photo, but I wonder why the M9 has M3 on the tail?



Please surprise us with the nect challenge!
 
My bad! And yes I may need new glasses, or clean the present ones, or get a bigger monitor/screen.
Attached a second photo. M9 on tail and not M3.

Hi Kevin:encouragement:
Got a very nice colour pic of the ...... However, have not yet mastered the technique to lift it out of my Word Document.
Have asked a friend to help out, so please have some patience.
 
Have no clue on this tiny homebuilt with lawn mower engines. Mike, I don't understand the graphic you attached. Looks like a "Plant a Tree Foundation" logo or something.
 
Bah.

Hi Kevin:encouragement:, Hi Mike:encouragement:
Here is the big picture. The first aircraft (N73884 and known as M-10) had a pivoting wing for transport/storage. Engine was a Continental C90. Number two was N187LH and known as M-10C. Donot know whether it retained the pivoting wing. The FAA register later showed that N187LH had a Lycoming O-290 engine, so most likely it became a single also.

Kevin, punish us!
