Argh, not getting a hit. Maybe from a small company?
I think it's in one of my Juptners.
I think I know it: Aeronca LCS

Aeronca...ooopf. Time to take a long walk on a short pier.
Well done Uli ! One of the comparatively few low wing Aeroncas. Over to you
Thank you Mike!
How about this?

Looks like a cousin to the Ercoupe, a General Skyfarer.
looks like an RC airplane
The Skyfarer it is to Kevin

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

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

Marinavia Farina OQ.14 Levriero?

A 1938 design but didn't actually fly until 1943. Conceived as a military VIP light transport. Note the twin tail.
On with a jet somewhere in a backyard

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.
Milke, you are absolutely right on the NC.1080
But you ruined my offer for Huub #23962

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...
In the meantime I can help with another toy-like "almost seen here"

Has that "squashed" look, must be one of the Eshelman EF-100's.
"Eshelman Winglet" according to my source
