The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Yup. Mid North-East-ish.....

***Moses03*** · July 1st, 2022, 10:43

Argh, not getting a hit. Maybe from a small company?

I think it's in one of my Juptners.

**giruXX** · July 1st, 2022, 10:55

I think I know it: Aeronca LCS

***Moses03*** · July 1st, 2022, 13:14

Aeronca...ooopf. Time to take a long walk on a short pier.

**lefty** · July 1st, 2022, 13:46

Well done Uli ! One of the comparatively few low wing Aeroncas. Over to you

**giruXX** · July 1st, 2022, 21:20

Thank you Mike!

How about this?

***Moses03*** · July 2nd, 2022, 08:15

Looks like a cousin to the Ercoupe, a General Skyfarer.

**giruXX** · July 2nd, 2022, 22:37

looks like an RC airplane

The Skyfarer it is

to Kevin

***srgalahad*** · July 3rd, 2022, 09:39

Dang! I knew the Skyfarer, but I've been trying to identify the ship which I thought was part of the mystery

***Moses03*** · July 3rd, 2022, 10:58

Thanks Uli.

On with a twin...

**giruXX** · July 4th, 2022, 07:33

I wonder about the many similarities with the Yakovlev AIR-19

***Moses03*** · July 4th, 2022, 07:46

She is European.

**giruXX** · July 4th, 2022, 09:51

IAR 814, perhaps

**cthornburg** · July 4th, 2022, 11:29

Marinavia Farina OQ.14 Levriero?

Chris

***Moses03*** · July 4th, 2022, 11:34

Chris has the country of origin...

***Moses03*** · July 5th, 2022, 05:30

A 1938 design but didn't actually fly until 1943. Conceived as a military VIP light transport. Note the twin tail.

**giruXX** · July 5th, 2022, 07:50

Bestetti C.3

***Moses03*** · July 5th, 2022, 16:14

Uli has it.

**giruXX** · July 5th, 2022, 22:04

On with a jet somewhere in a backyard

**lefty** · July 5th, 2022, 23:03

Ahh, Uli, nearly fell into the trap there ! - in fact had 'Dass.....' typed out before the penny dropped. It is surely the SNCAC.NC 1080 in one of its early manifestations ? They altered the tail profile a few times.

However the idea that an aeroplane could fly without ailerons was proven tragically wrong when it crashed fatally in 1950.

**giruXX** · July 5th, 2022, 23:46

Milke, you are absolutely right

on the NC.1080

But you ruined my offer for Huub #23962

**lefty** · July 6th, 2022, 04:49

Sorry fellows - still having teething problems with my new rig, and compatibility with old software - result ? I can't scan anything at the moment.
Rather than recycling some mystery that has been here before, I'd better declare Open House until I get things sorted out. Apologies for that...
