Hi giruXX :encouragement:
Sorry, but answer is only 99,9999% correct. It is the PJ-1, the aircraft in original form. After modifications she became PJ-1A (see photo with PJ-1A on tail). Note the reduced glass area.
Nevertheless, nothwithstanding and despite the missing 0,0001%, please go ahead with the next one :jump:

Yes, I do have it as such. Enjoy a :icon29: or two!

(a plane to count on: one engine, two inhabitants, three planes, four blades :mixed-smiley-010:)
 
Something completely different.

It's the SP I.:guinness: Chester lost his life in a later version apparently. Takes a bold pilot to fly these little twitchy numbers!
 
Thank you Kevin:encouragement:. I think Art Chester was indeed killed in Swee`Pear II (also named ARC-Air Race Chester) N4000K in 4/1949

This small staggerwing biplane had a relatively short life. Not shown in photo, but she had a registration (no remkoved by me)

Well, it’s the Drezet-Mirouze 02 “Drezair” (1973), registered F-WTXF after minor changes, and crashed in 1974 due to insufficient power of its Volkswagen 1300 engine.
 
Thinking I have seen this I-strut inline job in one of the Juptner books but have no access to those until late tonight.
