The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[Baragouin]

Carlo, your biplane has a distinctive wing. It looks like a New Standard. Maybe a NT-2?

Edit: Found your plane and listed as a D-25.

Yes Kevin she's the New Standard D25...your turn and please surprise us!
Cheers
Carlo

One final thought on the Waco - should this not be the 10-T (Taperwing) ? The 10-W was straight, i.e. parallel, wing like most other Wacos, and those wings are certainly not parallel !

Mike, this is the quote from my source.
I must admit that I didn't notice the difference between the ASO/10-W and the ATO/10-T in the picture but now I think that the source is wrong and the biplane is actually a Waco ATO.

You have good eyes

This one will not win any beauty contests.

 

[giruXX]

I am puzzled. The fuselage looks like from a Vance Special.

Any relation ?

 

[giruXX]

Now I found it! It’s the "Satteo" six-passenger commercial airplane (350hp. Liberty) designed and constructed by O.L. Woodsin and J.P. Porter in 1922.

 

[Moses03]

It is the 1922 SATTCO airliner. No word on the 6 passengers crammed into the wood fuselage.

 

[giruXX]

Ooh, my old eyes, sattCo of course

Here is an interesting bird:

 

[Moses03]

It's not French either...

 

[giruXX]

Some clues for the detectives among us:

• The similarity with the well-know French aeroplane is a good starting point, as (all?) authors mention this.
• One of the two designers became very famous. The airplane should therefore somehow appear in his CV (but I didn’t check).
• Interestingly, the designation for this airplane was used twice: for a biplane and for the depicted monoplane. Both built by the same men.

 

[giruXX]

I have to reveal as I must go: Bylinkin and Sikorsky type 1 BiS-1 monoplane.

Open House please.

Nice biplane

[fabulousfour]

I think this is the Cox-Klemin Night Hawk aka Heinkel HD.27

 

[cthornburg]

That's the one. I thought it might last longer.

Here is another good looking biplane of the same era.

 

[lefty]

Is that the Memel A.F.G.1/Albatros L.65 ?

 

[fabulousfour]

That was fast, Mike!

It is one of the rare pictures of the Albatros L.65 in front of the Heinkel-hangar.

Next mystery please.

Thanks Robert - just happened to get up early and recognised this one right away - posted it myself once long ago - the I-struts and spinner are the clues.......

Here's something small and portly (posted by someone of a similar description....)

 

[pomme homme]

Is that the prototype Victa (Millicer) Airtourer VH-FMM? It looks like it except that the cabin glazing doesn't tie up with any of the photographs I've found.

 

[lefty]

Yes Mike, that's the prototype - wooden-built, although I don't know about the canopy frame...

Here's something small and portly (posted by someone of a similar description....)

That made me chuckle this morning...and I needed that! Lefty, ever so humble.
