The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Should have looked more carefully - my pic looks quite different in character - it is the Aero A-211. I hope our Czech friends will excuse me alluding to them as Balkans.......

Yes Lefty she's the Aero 211 and in my clue I wasn't specific enough I should have alluded to a "mitteleuropaeischer landlocked country"...anyway your well deserved turn and sorry for the delay!
Cheers

[lefty]

Thanks BG. This one's from a wee country that is NOT landlocked, nor is it anywhere near the Balkans....

 

[giruXX]

Could this be the ANBO I single-seat aircraft developed in Lithuania?

 

[lefty]

Now there's a surprise.......... yes of course it is Lieutenant Gustaitis' little flivver......

 

[giruXX]

Look, I do have grainy pictures as well.

hi giruXX
The Mk.1 Utility with inflatable wing built by M.L.Aviation Co.Ltd for the British Aviation Ministry/Royal Army Air Corps.
Now in the Museum of Army Flying, Middle Wallop?

Hi Wout

That's her, indeed

 

[wout]

This novelty appeared 1989/1990 and she was flown! Development was, however, soon halted.

I hope Uncle Joe put a wheel on the bottom of the cruciform tail before flight testing.

 

[wout]

Hi Kevin.
Good question!. Have no clue at all. Maybe the so-called 3-surfaces controls have to do with the t/o behaviour?
In the sketch no tail wheel is visible either.

 

[giruXX]

There is a photo from a test flight that doesn't show a tail wheel

 

[wout]

hi giruXX
Dud you receive yesterday`s PM? Cannot find cnfirmation it actually went out to you.

 

[wout]

The 3-surfacer is US by a well-known designer/co-designer, who has several other aircraft (high wing, push/pull, gyrocopter, scaled WW2 replica, pusher/twin boom to give a few) to his name.

 

[wout]

She is the Nova by Aircraft Designs, Inc. (Mr. Martin Hollman). Designs he was involved in include the Stallion, Starkraft 700, Thunder Mustang, HA-2M gyro, etc.
OH please

 

[Moses03]

This one is a bit elusive...

 

[giruXX]

Is it from Russia (i.e. former Soviet Union)?

 

[Moses03]

Hey gX, good thought due to high grain content but you can strike Russia off the list...

 

[Baragouin]

Hey Moses the kings of tandem wing aircrafts are french therefore.......(but I can't go any further!)
Cheers
BG

 

[Moses03]

Good eye BG on the tandem wing arrangement. It is indeed French!

No doubt right in pomme homme's wheelhouse.
