Hello Keith!
Please forgive my ignorance...I don't seem to be able to locate any information concerning Airpin A1.:banghead:
Would you be kind enough to supply some information about this twinboom or direct me to a useful link?
Cheers
Baragouin

Never mind Keith I found all I needed....

Hello Lefty
I found on Aviafrance what I think it is the same aircraft identified by you as Albert A120.However Aviafrance calls it as Albert TE-1.....is it the same aircraft called by two different names?

Very possibly, Baragouin ! In fact definitely - F-AIVA it is in Jane's 1931 also. There it is called the A-120, but we are at the mercy of French aircraft builders here, whose appellations were capricious at best and designed to confuse les Anglais. Only M.Albert will really know.
 
Very reminiscent of one of those Caudron racers, but I suspect is American ?

Incidentally, I don't wish to thrash this one to death, but whilst looking up my Caudron racers, came across another Albert 120 !
 
It looks German to me, with an inverted V8, racing numbers and a 'blitz' on the side, except for the propeller...
 
Oh boy!:jump: I finally tracked down a photo of this rare elusive twin. To my knowledge has never appeared on the net in a mystery thread until now.
