I'm out of ideas where to look as have not yet found it. I think also that BG's idea is not the same kite although very similar, the engines look different.

Not being into civilian aircraft and going from memory. I believe it's from Brazil and call the Cameriz not sure of the spelling.

Hi Chris :encouragement:
Brazil is the right country. Name is somewhat different, Casmuniz 5-2 (also seen as 52).
Invitation for the next challenge is on your desk :very_drunk:
 
That tailwheel location is a little unusual but I think we are going to need a hint. This is a very common design for the period.
 
I found it somewhere on the web listed as Verville V-151A Air Coach and Aerofiles lists it as 104C Air Coach. Open House

Chris
 
Interesting designs by Verville if one Googles him. Did not know he existed.
Try this possibly easier example.

After a week soaking up the Italian sunshine, it's nice to kick off with an easy one ! It's the Beech JRB-1.
