The T-tailer is the Satco Air SA-1, built by a company from Rotterdam/Holland.
Originally known as the SA-1 (Registration PH-1K9) the aircraft turned out too heavy to qualify as ultralight and was not flown with this registration. The aircraft was
reworked as the SA-2 (now registered PH-XAA) as homebuilt.
Stalled on first flight (February 1985) and fell back to runway. Development was halted. Registration PH-XAA was cancelled in March 1985.
OH please

Carlo my sympathies for your loss. My wife has passed her diagnosis of life expentancy. Had stage 4 breast cancer last year but got 100% of it out.
Now on with something different. This is from a famous manufacturer. It's US but not in aerofiles this particular version. I think the person who labeled it was wrong but never know. I do occasionally company profiles of all their aircraft like when we had Couzinet aircraft I did their aircraft. That's how I found this on the web. I think the markings on the right wing are 2331? I think the labeling might be off 5 numbers. I couldn't find any other info on this version if correct.

The odd thing is that the background - the trees and the marquee - alone rings a faint bell for me!

It's possible that the original engine was a radial.

That could be it. I found this just goggle "thomas morse S-1A alamy" I thought there could be something pre S-4 i.e. S-1/3 also had a pix of a S-4 mod. with inline engine. I don't have my Waco books here with me yet hopefully in near future. As I was doing "Thomas Morse found quite a few aircraft I didn't know about and not in Aerofiles.
Comments. Over to you if Waco or OH.
