These garden-variety biplanes are draining my lifeforce. I will be back after the storm has passed! :sheep::173go1:

It's probably some sort of tropical bug you picked up while flogging around the Amazon with those pirates...:eek:

..but I shouldn't ramble on. I do have a floater waiting in the wings tho'
 
Oh dear it's playing up again. Have to log in every 5 minutes, and 'go to first unread post' doesn't do it - I end up in November !

Rob, I've checked everything I can find with Warren struts, but this one has escaped - better reveal and bring on your floater.

(PS Pay no attention to Moses - it's another bout of of TBA - Texas Biplane Aversion)
 
Canader, eh?:canada:

It's the Curtiss-Reid Rambler
This should be a nice read about Reid...:icon_lol:

Rob, when did you post this ? Within the last hour ? I am having problems with the forums, and you post shows up at 11.38 our time, which is 5 hours ago !
 
Anyway, I'm kicking myself over the Rambler, which I should have nabbed. Careless.

This one,though, is right up my street - the Boeing A-213 Totem.

posted about 7 minutes before your response (09:38 lcl or 15:38Z)

and another dram for the thirsty Scot . I didn't think you'd miss out on a floatboat:jump:

Check your time reference in your profile. Mine got reset last year and it took a few days for me to notice.
 
Think we might be back to normal now. It is terribly easy for people my age to get confused......:confused:

And it's Friday night :icon29::guinness::icon29:

We will continue the floater theme - better not make it a biplane or certain persons may secede from the forum....

Looking at the tail and rotor I'd say it's a derivative of the Bell 47, but it could also be a modified version of one of the many license-built 47's..
 
Texas Helicopter Co. M-79T.

Ferry did the heavy lifting here, I just followed up on his Bell 47 clue.:mixedsmi:
 
Nice one, Kevin (it would have been a bit naughty of you not to get it - built in your backyard !)
This model is in the 80/81 Jane's, which is, of course, one of the few I don't have !
 
:icon29: goes to moses.

Thought the tail was going to be a giveaway. Theres a few nasty ones where that came from though:icon_lol:
