The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

On the nail, Keith - I was just about to give a clue. Parnall made some very interesting aircraft..... :icon29: Over to you.
 
Yes I'd forgotten about Parnall's - in this case it was a search for Pobjoy engined a/c that found it - & yes there are good photos on the web - thats my only source - no ancient books left! Could be a future Sim - I've put it in the to do section!
Anyway try this:

Well done! a single malt for the Scot!
It is possible that my father helped with this aircraft - I know that he worked for Dudley Watt converting the SE5A to the DW1 as previously show here & subsequently worked for Brooklands Aviation.
Next please.

Was looking for a photo of a Tellier 500 and stumbled across the Donnet-Denhaut D.D.10 by accident!
 
Happy accident, Kevin ! :icon29:

Curious about the Tellier, though - I looked for a photo for you and came across quite contradictory information. This photo claims to be the Tellier 400 (2x200hp H/S motors - 30 built) but in another book a 3-view of the same aircraft is called the Tellier T.5 (2x250hp H/S - 10 built). Aviafrance claims only one built.

As ever with French aircraft history, you pays your money and takes your choice......
 
Well you fellows are in the right neck of the woods, :france: , but she's not a Farman !

If you look at some of my posts in a different thread.....:mixedsmi:

Quite a spacious machine - like the steering wheel......
