The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

....... It's from the land of the rising sun .....

I was going to enquire whether it might be one of the Argentinian poux. There used to be an excellent website that listed all of the formule Mignet aeroplanes, both in France and around the world, but it no longer exists. It appears that its creator took it down. I wonder if anyone had the foresight to download the material from that website before it was taken from us?

Well my mystery was the Tachikawa R-HM from

Open house with two open doors:

- front door for Sopwith Chameleon
- back door for anybody else if Sopwith Chameleon fails to post a new mystery within a reasonable time

The website to which I alluded yesterday is pouguide.org. I believe that it has disappeared only recently.

 

[Sopwith Chameleon]

OH please

OK, let's keep it rolling with an easy one -

Hi Mike
The Morane-Saulnier MS-470 Vanneau 1 (reportedly originally named Lévrier) ?

 

[lefty]

Don't know about Lévrier, Walter, but it is certainly the MS.470. Over to you -

 

[wout]

Before you ask, yes she is shown here in her finished state.
If it helps, construction was all-aluminium and the wings could be folded (upwards).

 

[pomme homme]

My memory tells me that this minimalist aeroplane has put in an appearance here before - but I can't remember when or what it is!

 

[Moses03]

What, no pithy comment from Lefty about this home built being covered with tin foil?

Thank you, Uli. You've re-established my belief in my own grey matter!

Hi giruXX
Is part of your grey matter on the market for a transplant? Seems I can use some.
My database has become unstable and since I cannot blame myself, I must find someone else take the blame.
Am busy restructuring my PC, so for while I am now back to collecting expensive cars, till all is solved.
Of course it is the Neumann N-2.

May I invite you for the next one

 

[lefty]

And Kevin, was my comment at the time pithy enough ???

 

[Moses03]

Pithy indeed from you and Rob!

 

[giruXX]

To activate your grey matters further. The other picture is no longer here in this thread.

Uli, that is the Klemm 35 D-EDEX modified by Wolf Hirth.
Still airworthy if I remember correctly.

 

[giruXX]

correct in all accounts, over to fab4

Here we go with similar aircraft of about the same era.
