Thanks Lefty for letting us all aware of this wonderful documentary....however I think this guy Dimert poses as a new Leonardo da Vinci....
Cheers

Bob Diemert is definitely a "character" but he's also done some significant work:

Hello boys and girls!

Everybody gone to sleep?

Summertime no doubt & too hot to think........? I have nothing to offer at the moment either, RW items taking priority!

 

[Moses03]

Wout has the board but maybe he has been out of pocket the last day or so.

 

[wout]

......wout has the board.......
I thought it was mine for keeps! Now it turns out you guys also want to play. Not fair!
Next one is sneaky. I donod know what it is myself. My best guess would be something post-war (WW2).

 

[wout]

and now for the picture. You have to excuse me. Temps today expected to rise to 30º C.

 

[fabulousfour]

Wout, that's the Rinehart-Whelan Monoplane of 1930.
Have a look here (page 5) or at aerofiles


BTW, I really love that anecdote of the SR-71 starting on page 4 of that link.

 

[wout]

Thank you fabulousfour
Have changed my mind (again) and like to continue playing.
Very nice link, thank you!

 

[pomme homme]

Had Fab4 not been so quick off the mark I would have suggested - quite erroneously - that it looked as if someone had chopped the rear fuselage of a Hanriot H-182 and then rigged up a replacement using, primarily, scaffolding poles!

I see that the weather in the low countries is going to be on the cooler side. Here 36⁰ C is on the cards for this afternoon. But what's the betting that Texas trumps that!

 

[lefty]

the Rinehart-Whelan Monoplane of 1930.

Second appearance for this one ! (March 2015)

 

[fabulousfour]

Here's my next mystery with a rather well known person

 

[Moses03]

Well, it is a Kinner Airster circa 1921. The pilot is either Neta Snook or Amelia Earhart? (hard to tell at that distance).

 

[fabulousfour]

It is Amelia

Here is the full picture, enjoy a fresh cold beer

 

[Moses03]

Thanks Robert.

Let's jump ahead in time a little bit.

 

[giruXX]

North American NA-18, methinks

 

[Moses03]

Boom! It is the -18. A mug of suds for gX.(You fellas across the pond favor the dark ale I think?)

 

[giruXX]

I favor India Pale Ale (IPA)

My next offer is a wee twin

 

[lefty]

The wee twin is the Monocoupe Monocoach Zenith ( there's a mouthful)..

Incidentally, India Pale Ale , certainly in Scotland, is darker in colour than most other beers !

 

[giruXX]

[NX15433] modified into 4pClwM Zenith (with two 90hp Lambert R-266) and I agree on both topics !
