The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Looks a lot like the Hughes H1 which it isn't I know, but who copied it to some extent I have no idea.
Bit more help please for me.......

Sure thing. Maybe another photo would help? This time from the rear...

I think that this is the Hawks (Miller) HM-1 (some sources call it the HM-2), which was developed from Howard Miller's 'Time Flies' racer by MAC as a two seat fighter.
 
Thank you, Green.

By way of an inaugural offering, maybe the following will be of interest. I hope that it hasn't been used before. But with such a venerable thread, it's not practicable to check to see!





I have a bottle of my own eau de vie de prune mirabelle uncorked and ready for a correct identification!

This little runabout has made an appearance before (sans the frontal view) by yours truly that Lefty identified at the time.

No worries, maybe one of the others can have a go at it.

Yes it has therefore my identification would be meaningless.....but for sure somebody else would like to have a go....

It would seem that other than those in the know, there's no-one else taking a stab at this one. So might it be easier just to pass on it and call open house?

Sorry pomme, not the foggiest idea mate. Gut feeling says maybe European, but that's as far as I've got.
 
Okay, let's do this-

With Green at the end of his rope and most of us knowing the little bug already, Pomme homme, please post a new mystery for us.

The repeat is the Weymann CTW-130 and was a good selection had it not showed up back in August.

I think this is a fair solution.:santahat:
 
Very well, but I'm afraid that it won't be until this evening. And I'll have to crave forgiveness in advance if it proves to be something obscure which was designed in France, built in North Africa and comprised of British bits! :devilish:
 
Harking back to Charles Weymann, I wondered why it sounded familiar, now I know it was the same person who built car bodies in the 20's & 30's, & the company produced bodies for busses in Addlestone, near to Vickers Armstrongs where I used to work!!!! I thought at the time it was named such because of the River Wey, that passes through Brooklands.....
Looking forward to the next from Mr 'Appleman'

Holding my breath..........

Well, I hope that you haven't had this one before. And if I'm wrong, blame google! Using it, I searched against a list of possibilities, employing the name of the aircraft and Sim-Outhouse as my search criteria, and found myself setting aside a significant number of aircraft, that I'd earmarked as possibilities, by virtue of positive search results! However this one didn't throw up a positive response, so fingers crossed.....
