The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Hi Kevin,:salute:
The SKYcar by Oma Sud Technologies of Italy. I understand they will (of already have?) put up an assembly line in Opa Locka, FL.
 
It certainly looks Italian, but why twin fins & presumably twin booms on a twin engined a/c - what happens between them?

Thanks for the link - very interesting - Bernouli/Cunliffe-Owen type of A/c, very neat idea for an airborne MPV.

A nice ag-plane. All can participate, not only the Texas Aggies (although it is not from that great State):icon_lol:
 
Walter, some times I just don't know....

LV-X-48 is an Aero Boero 260AG

(I gave up and then when I went back to curse and grumble I noticed a teensy-weensy semblance of an Argentine flag at the top of the fin)
 
sirgalahad, by using the proper approach (as so perfectly described by you) we can solve all mysteries.
It is indeed the sole Aero Boero AB-260AG of 1972. :icon29:

To keep us busy (and puzzled) Aero Boero later had another AB-260, this time a high wing job (LV-X46).

The long lean Rooski is the Bolkhovitinov S - the single-engined version, the other being a tandem-engine contra-prop job. Both failures.
