Hmm, information on these is a bit scarce.

Sorry, I've been out of it for most of today - haven't anything lined up, so OH please..

**Hurricane91** · March 5th, 2011, 16:02

Since it's quiet I'll fill the gap, briefly...

Tip.....change the file name when posting. Avia156.jpg tends to lessen the 'mystery' a bit. :mixedsmi:
Care to try a different one?

OOPPS, posted wrong image. You called it DHC, so please proceed.

**DHC2Pilot** · March 6th, 2011, 19:18

**lefty** · March 7th, 2011, 07:15

Not a Caudron. Not giving away any clues just yet - fish away !

***Moses03*** · March 7th, 2011, 09:40

Where do you find these? This is a new one to me.

**lefty** · March 7th, 2011, 10:35

There speaks a man who has unearthed more aviation obscurities than anyone in the civilised world......

**DHC2Pilot** · March 7th, 2011, 14:47

The beautifully crafted Peeterman's SEA.1

**lefty** · March 7th, 2011, 20:09

Indeed it is. A bonny one-off from Belgium - a glass of Duvel

for the gentleman from Illinois.

**DHC2Pilot** · March 7th, 2011, 20:18

Thanks Mike. Here's an oldie to ponder.

**lefty** · March 7th, 2011, 22:18

I would take a bit of convincing that that thing got off the ground, John.

Mind you, if the guy in front pedalled really hard.........

***Moses03*** · March 8th, 2011, 04:39

It's powered by a 45hp Belgian Vivinus engine. The Bruneau-Parant Monoplane of 1912.

**DHC2Pilot** · March 8th, 2011, 05:50

Spot on Kevin.

***Moses03*** · March 8th, 2011, 09:10

Thanks J. These types are never safe with Wout lurking about...

***srgalahad*** · March 8th, 2011, 10:02

So THAT'S what happens when one allows a Rutan Vari-eze to spend too much time around a Do-335!

**DHC2Pilot** · March 8th, 2011, 17:01

Aero Design Associates DG-1

***Moses03*** · March 8th, 2011, 17:36

to John on the push-pull bastard child.

Fire away-

**DHC2Pilot** · March 8th, 2011, 19:38

Keeping in tune with the current genre I offer this:

**wout** · March 9th, 2011, 09:12

I lóóóóóve those homebuilts!

The sole one-of-a-kind unique prototype of the Halstedt BH-1 Safire by Mr. Barry Halstedt and first flown 1990 (N297)

**DHC2Pilot** · March 9th, 2011, 09:26

BH-1 it is. Over to you Walter.

P.S. - we must restrict the use of the word "homebuilt" as it tends to upset the natives. [Shhhhhh!]<SHHHHH>

**lefty** · March 9th, 2011, 11:04

It's alright, John. I know when I'm being wound up...........:angryfir:

**wout** · March 9th, 2011, 12:00

John, I understand your concerns. I suggest that instead of homebuilts we describe them as aircraft created in a non-factory activities. That should satisfy our friends in the UK and the Great State of Texas.

You know the famous plaquette in that non-factory aircraft......... the Arch of Noah was built by an amateur, the Titanic by professionals.

This one was the prototype of many to follow. Please the name of the (original) manufacturer and type designation.
