The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

This one should not cause too much fuss.

Hi Moses!
Would that be a Romano R16? I only have two terrible pics of that craft but several details seem to tally....
Cheers

Thanks Moses!
Let's remain then over french crafts....I was fortunate enough to discover on a russian site (not airwar.ru) following picture for which up to now I only had a black 3-views.
Her name please...
Cheers

Hey BG, I posted this one two or three years ago but no worries. See who else is a twin boom fan.:biggrin-new:

Hello boys and girls!
I think it's high time to reveal my mystery: it is the DeMonge-Buscaylet 120RN3...BTW it seems it actually never flew though almost completed (maybe the company's treasurer ran away with the funds of the company!)....
Open House please
Cheers
BG
 
I don't know about the scale, Walter, but it's certainly the Fouga Lutin at the Paris Salon of 1950. I'm surprised that no-one snapped it up before you. I would have thought that the tail immediately would have given away the identity of the manufacturer. But over to the Low Countries for the next one, please.
 
Hi Kevin :very_drunk:
She is, although I did not know she was from California. How are you coping with the temps. I guess liquids are a major part of the remidy?
 
I keep threatening to move the family north where it snows most of the year. I thrive in the cold weather.:biggrin-new:

Here is a French bird to consider.

This svelte Gallic beauty is the S.N.C.A.C. NC.470, sans flotteurs.....

Having survived Microsoft's latest attempt to render my PC unusable (version 1607), I can, hopefully, post again.

Here is a floater which has been posted before, but a wee while ago......

Moses, of course, has this one, but is being typically modest. Designed in his homeland (not in Texas!) by one of the godfathers of American floaters. A one-off with a Wright motor.
 
Looks like there are no takers Mike. This is the Loening Monoduck from 1934. A really neat floater that sort of fell into the cracks of aviation history.

I wonder what the paint scheme was. Maybe red on white?
