The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Hi Mike :encouragement:
Maybe a shoulder wing?
Does your photo show the entire fleet of Billman "Little Pink Cloud" aircraft?.
 
Hi PH :encouragement:
My guess is that it is c/n 8 which was originally known as F-PHZB. The new registration F-PRZB was (according to Fox-Papa publication) reserved by Jean-Philippe Avenel so it could be this was actually painted on the aircraft.
 
Thank you Mike:encouragement:
I donot think this one was posted before (checked search).

The aircraft is post-war and was a prototype which was followed by a second prototype and 5 production examples, differing in engine.

This is the Lelievre Monoplane of 1913. Note the chain drive to keep the prop from digging up weeds.

Well done Moses :icon29:.
I could not find very much info on the beast apart from my one photo & his name. So your additional info very good.
Your turn sir!

Thanks Keith.

Here is a curious one to consider.

Interesting thought PH. I like all those HD designs but this one is not French. Those Model A sedans in the background are a clue...
 
Not a Curtiss BG. This came from a small designer who is more known for a very oddly shaped tailless pusher design from the early 1930's.

Here is another look.
