Chicago-Midwest X-101. It ended it's days as a hot dog stand!

 

[Sopwith Chameleon]

....... AKA the Dayton Overmount over to Texas

 

[Moses03]

Thanks Jim.

Onward and upward.

 

[lefty]

Seems awfully familiar, Kevin.....

 

[fabulousfour]

I think that is the IMAM Ro.30 with a Jupiter engine.

 

[Moses03]

You got it.

Not too many photos of this version.


(Lefty picked off it's cowled brother about 8 years ago).

 

[fabulousfour]

Thanks, Kevin.

On with a sleek monoplane.

 

[fabulousfour]

The only type of this manufacturer, about a dozen aircraft built.

One has survived and is exhibited in a European museum.

 

[fabulousfour]

First flight in the mid 1930ies, designed as a fighter trainer.

 

[Moses03]

No takers on the Sparmann S-1?

 

[fabulousfour]

It is the Sparmann S-1, here the first prototype.

Over to you, Kevin

 

[Moses03]

Thanks Robert.

This one is a bit more obscure...

 

[Moses03]

One-off rebuilt from another similar looking cabin biplane of the time.

 

[lefty]

Not much of a clue here, although hints of de Havilland ?

 

[Moses03]

Hails from USA, powered by either a Hall-Scott or a Wright-Hisso depending on your source. First flown in 1924 with the novelty of a couple getting married aloft later that year.

 

[lefty]

Without the search facility, Aerofiles has lost its charm!

 

[Moses03]

West coast USA with the designer having instructed Amelia Earhart at one time.

California "Coupe Cabin" according to my files.
