Thanks Dev One ...I apologize for the delay but today being tax day in Italy (so our Xmas bonus is completely absorbed by our good leftist rulers) I had a few things on my mind....
However here's my today's offer:

All details point to an Ambrosini S.A.I. 2S, apart from the fin. (even the rudder is the same shape) Is this a modified racer, or whatever ??


(Edit- have just found a photo of I-ELIS, which is indeed a modified 2S)

Very quick indeed Lefty....yes it is an Ambrosini SAI 2S and precisely the I-Elis which had a modified tail with a fin (the Others didn't...)
Your turn please

Spot on, Kevin - I thought the lack of cowl might throw you.....:very_drunk:

Yes, the Meridionali/I.M.A.M Ro30, although in the Jane's of the time they were called 'Romeo'.
 
Hello

As a new arrival, I just thought that I'd say hello to you gentlemen. I'm looking forward to being able to identify one of your fiendishly difficult mystery aircraft and then posting something that might have you scratching your heads!

Welcome, pomme homme ! We try to vary the 'fiendish' machines to suit everybody, and always welcome new blood, so don't be intimidated !

Quite often the regulars get sidetracked elsewhere and will declare an 'OH' or Open House, and then you can dive in with one of your own - we look forward to seeing your posts :applause:
 
Thanks Mike. Also, welcome to pomme homme and to Green (hope we see you back soon).


Full frontal anyone?

Yeah, still here mate - lurking. Tough quiz and I think, country wise, I must be sleeping when the action happens!

The Bloch - the endplates are well hidden by the angle of the shot in your photo? Haven't heard of that one before, nice one!

Cheers!
 
You found it indeed, Mr Green ! Well spotted - over to you :icon29: (Don't know what your choice of tipple is - we have a limited range in this little saloon......)

You alluded to time zones in a previous post - I take it you are west of the Atlantic - we have contributors from all over and it seems to even itself out.
 
Thanks very much lefty! I'll pass on the drink though - past history of alcohol abuse. I'll try that full frontal approach, but go with Tiny-pic as I had too much trouble with the attachment process this morning....

Cheers.
