Sneaky one, BG ! You know floaters are my 'thing', but I don't want to hog them all, so we'll see how many other flying boat fans are out there........
 
Yes, I thought that would smoke Rob out too. However he's posting away on Newshawks so that's good news....
 
Hi Kevin !
Are you able to cope with the heat??

Walter- I had this as something else (probably mislabeled), but I'm sure you are correct so enough said! :very_drunk:

Over to you.
 
Hi Kevin :encouragement:
Don`t start re-labelling your pics yet, Mike is right with the Macchi MB-320. SFCA acquired a production
licence, but never produced aircraft. Understand that at one time 3 examples were on the French register as SFCA Vema 51.

Please have a go a this one. Sorry for the grainy pic.

Thought so.

Anyway Walter's motoglider isn't a Fournier, Keith. Its the SOKO SL-40 Liska prototype from what used to be called Yugoslavia*.. Stumbled on it by sheer luck.

(*It was from Mostar, which I think is now in Bosnia-Herzegovina. I'll stick to Yugoslavia.:a1310:)

Hi Mike :encouragement:
Excellent research and thank you for the pic!
Btw, at our age it is not sheer luck, but called sheer expertise :icon29:

Your turn, please
 
Vivid indeed - BG on the ball yet again.......:very_drunk:


That float strut setup just doesn't look right at all......
