    Help needed for the identification of an unknown monoplane

    8x Foto-Negativ Negative Pilot Lastensegler Flugzeug Luftwaffe WL WW2 | eBay

    In this eBay offer we can find photos of German sailplanes and gliders (Kranich , Minimoa , DFS 230 ...) and a little high wing monoplane .
    I think it could be a pre-war French aircraft : I believe that the registration begins with a F- , but I am not sure at all ...
    Thanks for any help

    That is probably a Rheinland Schwalbe FR.2 less its lower wing and cowling.
    You can see holes in the wing where the struts would fit in.

    According to a post in the Flugzeugforum one was sold to France, this could be the one in the photo.

    Great ! Thank you !
    Marton Szigeti in Klassiker der Luftfahrt 06/2012 tells that the FR 2 D-ENAX (ex FR 1 / Kl 1 D-1169) was sold to France , where it was registered F-AOCN .
    But in "Golden years of aviation" , the F-AOCN is the ex D-1364/TS-AAE/CH-342/HB-UXI .
    One (more) mystery I am unable to solve ...

    Anyway , a very interesting photo : probably from sommer 1940 ...
