• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

It shouldn't last long.

(I suppose I should know the answer. I have few more difficult wots, but I don't know their id myself)

Strictly speaking, Jim, this one is off-limits - we don't do mock-ups as a general rule !

Curiosity made me persevere. Mid-wing configuration made me think Brewster, but the tail unit was weird. Eventually stumbled on the early mock-up for the XA-32, looking a lot different from the others !

Try another one, Jim, or declare an OH. I'm off for the day - never refuse a free lunch !
 
......... Ah ! As a canny Scot you saw through my little ruse ..... It is the XA-32 , the plane that finally killed off Brewster .

I hope you have a good lunch - hopefully a few drams will help you forget yesterday's disappointments.....:very_drunk::very_drunk:

OH please

Here is a nice little aircraft that would be in the category of ultralights nowadays.

It has the appearance of a Georges Sablier design, but I think that we've done all of those which came to fruition and were recorded photographically.
 
Not a design from Sablier, Mike, and also not a one-off.
If you are familiar with aircraft of the WW1 era you wouldn't believe that the (well-known!) company built planes like this a few years later. :very_drunk:
