The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Nah, can't eat the little fella. :engel016: We do have seven pet bunnies though. Kind of a hobby for the Mrs.


How about a new mystery Lefty? fasm might not be around until this evening.

Right. This one hails from the Prague area, the Stastik Dreadnought No. 1 of 1913.

The next one is a lot less obscure...


Oops on the geographic miscue. :redf:

Edit: Found this little monoplane:
