The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[wout]

Kjeller story here, Walter...

Thank you Mike. I missed that one completely. Must haven been alcohol or women or maybe I spent too much time in my Maserati

 

[lefty]

Haven't a clue about Mike's parasol banana - must be French though ?

(has to be from EU - it's a regulation straight banana.....)

 

[wout]

Hi Mike . You are correct, the banana is from France.
She is the other one by the same designer. That info should help.

 

[pomme homme]

Oh, with a nose like that, Mike, I thought that you were going to guess at it being a hitherto unknown version of the Piel CP.10!

Walter evidently knows what it is but is being inscrutable!

 

[pomme homme]

I wonder why it took Maurice thirteen years to come up with his next creation - which was a much more modern, sophisticated affair, of which two thirds of those constructed are still active.

 

[fabulousfour]

The clues could fit to a design of Maurice Brochet, however, the MB.30 which is the only parasol of the Brochet stable looks very different...

 

[wout]

He is another Maurice. the other plane is a low winger with swept tail and tri-gear. The first example appeared in 1961.

 

[fabulousfour]

Ah, I see.

The Paumier MP.1 built by Maurice Paumier in 1948.

 

[pomme homme]

Yes, that's her, Robert. A very different creature to the other Paumier (the less well known Maurice) design - as Walter evidently knew well! Over to Germany for the next one.

 

[fabulousfour]

Thanks, Mike!

Interesting, that there is a description of the Paumier in "Les Avions Francais 1944 -1964" but no photo.

This biplane shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[lefty]

With great respect, Robert, I think this is a sesquiplane ! It's the Pander EF85 with yet another of Wout's motors....

 

[fabulousfour]

Let's round up simply 1,5 to 2 and we both are correct, Mike.

And of course it is the Pander.

Over to Scotland, please.

 

[lefty]

Thank you Robert - I'll try to work out the cryptic message later !

Here's a jolly little two-seater...

 

[wout]

Hi Mike
That looks like the prototype Tuholer (N9110R) by Tony and Dorothy Spezio anno 1961

 

[lefty]

A Tuholer in one for Walter....

 

[wout]

This one in from before the ultralight class was invented. One of the smallest 4-engined aircraft built. It had an official registration!

 

[pomme homme]

Now those do look like lawnmower engines - right down to, if my eyes are not playing tricks on me, a pull start on each motor. This will be right up lefty's street!

 

[Moses03]

It's the Briggs & Stratton 4 bagger!

Why did Walter scratch out the pilots face? Maybe he is Asian (quick clue?).

 

[srgalahad]

A Tuholer in one for Walter....

I don't know about Scotland, but in some parts THIS is a Tuholer (aka Two Holer)...

Later developed as the Two Holer Max

 

[lefty]

..and there was me thinking that you colonials, like the bears, just did it in the woods....
