The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[Moses03]

Correct on all fronts gX. I always wonder how much work it was to get all those larger aircrafts in and out of the display areas!

Over to Western Europe.

 

[giruXX]

Here is the next. Exact version please.

... I always wonder how much work it was to get all those larger aircrafts in and out of the display areas!

Well, aircraft are supposed to be lightweight structures and wings are usually detachable. The "little rest" is hand work.

 

[lefty]

That, sir, is the Engineering Division XB-1A.

 

[giruXX]

That's correct Sir! Have a nice in Scotland .

 

[lefty]

Thanks GX - actually it's a bit raw and damp today....

Here's an oddball which I hope has not been posted before -

 

[giruXX]

A Farman « Sport» à moteur Anzani 50 ch, connu à Toussus comme « La carte postale » F-AIDJ, Monsieur

Parasol version of the Farman FF 65 Sport.

 

[lefty]

That's it, gX, the Flying Postcard...

 

[giruXX]

Here is one that might fulfil Baragouin’s recommendations.

 

[pomme homme]

I daresay that's an Andreasson BA-4B.

 

[giruXX]

That's the one pomme homme

 

[pomme homme]

Thank you, giruXX. Now here's a delightful colonial scene .....

 

[Baragouin]

Thank you, giruXX. Now here's a delightful colonial scene .....

This looks to me like a Lachassagne AL5...
Cheers

[pomme homme]

.... and the reason why it does is because it is! It's the second AL-5 photographed in Cameroun. Over to you, BG.

p.s. I'd love to know why the chap in the middle of the group is wearing either a plastic washing up bowl or a birthday cake on his head!

 

[Baragouin]

Hello pomme-homme your remarks are always intelligent as well as witty!
Now I hope I may submit following design....the relevant aircraft was actually built (two prototypes) but no pics exist as most of the literature was destroyed during the final days of war...
Cheers
BG

 

[giruXX]

The SAIMAN 208, perhaps?

 

[Baragouin]

The SAIMAN 208, perhaps?

Yessir and very quick indeed....
your turn now and please no US one-off's!
Cheers
BG
(I'm joking of course you may naturally post what you want)

 

[giruXX]

I think it’s time to return to colors. (I am longing for summer, sigh …)

 

[pomme homme]

Thurston Teal?

 

[giruXX]

Can you be more specific, pomme homme?

The Thurston Teal is a family of two- and four-seat all-aluminium amphibious flying boats.
