The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Not a WACO. It first showed up in 1927. Unfortunately the company was out of business by 1929 despite an endorsement from a famed aviator.
 
The airplane gained some national attention when it was spotted in West Virginia at Langin Field...

I think this is the first Moundsville Lone Eagle X570E which was shown to Antony Fokker.

Quite different in its appearance to the Lone Eagle at aerofiles...
 
Surprised this is still around, although maybe some of you, like me, have been unable to get into the site !

This European number had a Siemens motor, and a close relative which was a low-winger...
 
Hi Mike, I'm in and out but didn't want to ping pong the mystery. Figured it was German by the tail and general layout but didn't actively look for it.

I can post something later if no one shows up.

Maybe some folks are on vacation.
