The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[wout]

Hi fabulousfour
That is the one! Understand the project started as the CADAM (Composite Aircraft Design And Manufacture) Mosquito. The aircraft in both pictures I submitted is VH-OZI and on both photos the aircraft carries markings/advertising as the CADAM Mosquito. It seems that Buchanan Aircraft Corporation goty involved and that a second aircraft was then built as VH-OZE (BAC-204, Ozzie Mozzie) with a much recontoured and longer nose (Rotax 912 engine).
I still did not find details on what engine was in VH-OZI with the short nose. Anyone???
Here is the original photo of VH-OZI on the poles, in front of the Buchanan Aircraft Corporation plant, but still marked as the CADAM Mosquito. .

Your turn please!

I wonder, whether the designer of the original Mosquito had a bad day when he designed the nose of that plane...

Back to something older again, sorry for the grainy picture.

This reminds me of a Caproni Ca97c Monomotore.....except for the wingtips!

Carlo, you are in the right track, but it is not the Ca.97.

Only one or two of this plane were built, depending on the source.

Thanks to our Tuscan friend, I found the Ca.105. Robert, please let Carlo proceed with the next one !

Thanks Mike!
I also looked into the Ca105 (only two of them were built I-ABCE and I-FOCO) however the pic in my possession shows a rather different wing but the large dorsal fin was a giveaway and I didn't pay attention to that detail!
I will submit shortly a new mystery….
Cheers
Carlo

Oh, heavens. No SPCA obscurities yet, then!

 

[fabulousfour]

Good teamwork, it is indeed the Ca.105

So a pint for Mike and half a pint for Carlo for putting Mike on the right track.

If he likes, over to Carlo.

Thanks to all of you!
I don't think that the above was shown here till now….
Cheers
Carlo

 

[Baragouin]

No takers yet? Maybe it will help to know that the man at the controls is Prince Cantacuzino (from Romania)…
Cheers
