• 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.

Thank you, Kevin. Here's a twin that came too late to make its mark. It's put in an appearance here before but not, I think, from this angle!

 
She put in an appearance here eleven months ago, Keith. I identified her then so I'll leave it to someone else to do so this time.

Have to call it open house until I can find something really obscure then, so its goodbye to the Hills Helvetia.

Quite deliberately, I avoided an identification, for the reason given before, and only corrected that given by Keith. Hence me not posting since. But as no-one else seems to want to fill the lacuna and as requested by Kevin, here's something which I would have thought has appeared here before - but a search of this thread indicates that it hasn't.

 
Clearly you have it, Uli, but I know it as the Brunswick Zaunkoenig V-2 (D-YBAR/VX190/G-ALUA/EI-AYU/D-EBCQ). Does your title come from the fact that it was designed by Dr-Ing. Hermann Winter?

I used to see her quite often at air shows in the 1950's, Shoreham, Coventry, & if a strong enough wind was present she would fly backwards (relative to the ground).
