• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

You are on the right track but that thing deserves a proper name. :lemo:

It was built under that name much more than just once! (in contrast to earlier 'bitsers' shown here before)
 
It always struck me that the snappiest named variant was the Wills UK LAA-approved Pietenpol Air Camper. I bet it took a committee to come up with that name!
 
'tis a Grega GN-1 Aircamper (reg. 19-4989 from someplace downunder?)

"05/31/2008. John Grega and Elmer Niebecker produced this modernized version of the Pietenpol Air Camper in 1963. A new designed and lengthened fuselage was fitted with Piper J-3 Cub parts, including a modified clipped wing, engine mount, landing gear and tail wheel, and Aeronca controls."

since I saw the original pic, I'll make this OH as I'm in a pit of alligators til the weekend :violent-smiley-031:
 
OK, let's keep it rolling with a nice, if draughty, floater....

The picture was taken in a northern country.

Unfortunately, the light was so glaring that the plane's national markings disappeared.
 
Curious, Gx, it looks like one of the Norwegian M.F. 1's, but that photo doesn't appear to show any source of propulsion ???
 
That appears a good try to me! :icon29:

I have it as Farman HF 23, SW 11 from Sweden. The houses in the background might well have stood in Södertälje.
