The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Siemens powered. Company best known for WWII fighter planes...
Thanks for the hints Moses. I'm pretty sure it's an early (prior 1930) Focke-Wulf (its wing looks exactly like the A32) but the exact number escapes me and unfortunately I have no time to look it up now.....

It certainly looks like a chocolate powered Dewoitine but I can't find one yet that has the exact look. Any time someone says "this is a easy one" don't believe it. :tongue:
 
Chocolate-powered, but this is an 'original' (ho ho) design by M. Alfred Comte - his AC-1. :switzerland: Dewoitine's lawyers are still on the case.........

Looks a bit younger than the Ansaldo - I thought it was a Fiat CR.20 Asso, but the engine isn't quite right..
 
Dohhhh, that's what you get when you get on a single-minded track, like it has to be Italian

It's a Curtiss-Reid Rambler, I think ?

I'm amazed this hasn't been nabbed. It's a Brit - 5 produced, Armstrong-Siddeley engine. No more hints !
