The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

hi PH:encouragement:
Maybe you already know the site, but please see: hxxp//www.retroplane.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4229&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
 
Thank you, Mike and Walter.

I was looking at the retroplane forum only this afternoon. That 20% scale model of the Sablier T52 looked to be a real labour of love. But what about its inspiration? Is OO-28 a Belgian microlight/ULM registration? Googling the relevant information produces nothing beyond the retroplane forum. Can you help, Walter, since it appears to have emanated from your part of Europe.

Manfully, I've resisted the temptation to post a picture of the Shoreham ATC Hoppity or the Bianchi Penguin as my next offering and have gone for something more prosaic but, in my opinion, a lot prettier. However I don't expect it to tax you greatly or last too long ...

 
Hello boys and girls!
In spite of the persisting heat wave and since my senses are not quite obnubilated yet I think I will quote her as a SETCA "Milan" of 1947...
Cheers

Hi PH:encouragement:
The OO-... system is AFAIK only for homebuilt aircraft and possibly only started after WW2. I will contact some friends with Belgian connections and try to get some reliable info on the OO-... system.
Since it is vacation, mind you, that may take some time.
 
This is one of two built prototypes flown for the first time around 1960, but which were shelved since no buyers showed interest.
Later on a small series of a few dozen aircraft with a different engine were built.
