Hi Green :encouragement:
This pusher is the Vorta Aircraft Corp. Vorta. A single-seat lifting body type designed/built by Carl Bouwens. 42 hp Rotax 532 engine.
Understand she was nearing completion around 1996, but I never saw confirmation she was actually flown.
Also have no idea whether the planned two-seater was built.
 
A motor glider on which I have disappointingly little info (except name and country of origin)

That looks like the Kocjan Bak Motorglider from Poland.
If correct, I have to declare Open House since I'm away from home until tomorrow evening.
 
Thank you fabulousfour:very_drunk:
I had the pic as just BAK SP-1102. Thanks to your info found more details.
I join fabulousfour in suggesting Open House !
 
Just to show no prejudice against small aircraft, here's a neat one which hasn't appeared here before, methinks, although a relative may have...

Thank you, Mike.

You may be pleased to learn that the attached is not French, homebuilt or particularly obscure - and, it appears, to be extant today!

This must be the THK11 (turkish)...are you sure she's still extant (what a nasty neologism instead of existant)?
Cheers

Indeed, Carlo has it. It is the T.H.K. 11. I said that it is extant because, when searching to ensure that this aeroplane had not put in a prior appearance here (!), I came across a photograph of it, on wikipedia, the caption to which is that the sole example produced is on display in the Ankara Turkish Aeronautical Museum. And we all know that wikipedia is infallible, don't we! Anyhow, over to Italy for the next mystery.

Hi Mike!
The unthinkable happened, I beat Walter! But do not worry it won't happen again!
Here's my today's offer dealing with a motorglider of the thirties….
Cheers
Carlo
