• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    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.

Sorry for this too mysterious bird : this is the Götz 50 built in 1985 by the brothers Zettl (Löhnberg).

Direct hit there, Richard !

Just to digress a little, I was watching one of the series 'Great American Railroad Journeys' done for the BBC by Michael Portillo, an ex-politician.

He had got to San Diego, and was visiting Mirimar base. During his intro, in the background, this caught my attention - is the US Navy finally giving up on expensive non-flyers and buying Swedish ?????

(incidentally, I hope you all read about the late arrival of the first four F-35 all-weather fighters to the UK. The reason for the lateness? - 'unfavourable weather conditions'.......)

Was the photograph taken at the EAA Naturists' Chapter 'Air and Bare' fly-in? It seems that the aeroplane was being used as the gentleman's 'modesty screen'!
 
hi giruXX:encouragement:
I think your canary is a Laco-145 by Joe Laven (USA). Two-seater, but on this one the front cockpit is covered.
 
If this one looks like the other ones, you are right. However, it is an independent design.
