Pretty sure on the Belgian. Don't want to seem "pushy", but here is the next one...

Right on with the Dassy
Aside from minor differences I'd say those were Cub wings. Dunno about the rest of it (yet)
what looks like palm trees, mountains in the back... I'll go look around SoCal some more before scouring more exotic locales

Not related to a Cub as far as I know.
Here is a side view. Pretty good sized for the type. It had decent STOL ability.Attachment 12527
This seems to be the builders only successful design. His claim to fame was a really oddball aircraft that he worked on just prior to the pusher. As Rob guessed, it is a west coast company.
It has a bunch of familiar elements and I know I've seen it recently, but I'm going to wave a white hanky..

I think it's Mr McClary's wee pusher........
That's the one. McClary "Dragonfly" from 1931.
Fire away-
A floater -
My guess would be a French floatplane racer of some sort. Not sure at all.
That was my first thought too, but I kept finding a bare cupboard.Originally Posted by Moses03
People in the background keep drawing me 'east', but the overall shape and mild gullwing cornfuzzle me

The 'mild gullwing' is the giveaway. Not French......
Held some world records....
Maybe a Klemm Kl 35?
OK. I was going to demand the BW suffix, but the 35 it is. Only pic I can find.
Over to a presumably hot Texas from an absolutely sodden Fife - the Open Championship is in danger of being washed out !
(the word amongst the golf buffs here is that Tiger won't even make the cut..)
I went thru everything `Klemm`I could find but the only floater was a pretty standard Kl35 two seater on floats from Norway.
Finally found one captioned and the fusleage and cockpit matches but it`s on wheels :

Yup, it's hot but we had some decent rain last week that greened everything up for the time being.
On the Klemm, I never did find a photo. I did come across the same pic srg posted and it sure looked like it minus the floats so I went with the guess.
Part two of the pusher series- this time with twin booms.Note: Not a motor glider!
:tgun2:Guess?GUESS?????
yeah.. easy for you to say.

The Pusher King has rolled out another horror for us and I don't think I've seen this one, but I suspect it's back to Aerofiles.....
Would this be the Payne/Knight MC-7 ?
No Sir.
Kevin, the Mendenhall Pusher?
Ka-boom! The Mendenhall M-1 it is.
This one was powered by a Cyclomotor engine that apparently didn't work too well.

This one is for the lovers of flying boats. Yes, it did fly (in 1975) and true beer lovers should not need much time to come up with the right name.
Sorry for the grainy picture, but it is rare, aint it?
