The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Maybe so John. I have trolled through some of those pics before. I thought the C.2 was from later on like the early 1920's though.
 
Variant #2 had 4-bladed props (possibly remotored) and a redesign on the tail section. From a small firm.
 
Didn't think this one would last so long. It's a S.P.C.A. 20 torpedo bomber.

How about this big brute?
 
Hmm, missed out on the French Floater - black mark on the Lefty escutcheon.

This unlovely beast is the 1st prototype Avro Ava, obviously not named after Miss Gardner....
 
Thanks for the drink. Need it down here in the desert wasteland.

Let's try something more modern...
 
Blimey that's hot ! Hope the aircon is reliable.

I've seen this wee beastie before, but with a different tail arrangement. I suspect Wout can give us chapter and verse.
 
OK, nobody else biting. This one is, of course, the Aвиа Аккорд from 1991-ish. Here's the original version which had Russian engines. They had to be replaced with Teledyne Continentals due to certification issues, and the aircraft became a 6-seater with beefed-up tail gear.
 
OK,this is the NUAA FT-300 made by the design department of Nanching University.

Right, here's another floater - or is it ?????
 
Looks like the Hinkler Ibis from this view.

Also didn't have a clue on your canard pusher. Interesting design though!
 
Thought this view of the Ibis might confuse - well spotted, sir. :icon29:

Incidentally, the floater should have been Nanjing - never confuse your jing with your chang !
