Hi Wout!
I'm glad I revealed your mysterious item (most of which are obscure for me) however in all fairness I must say that a great credit should be granted to Lefty who put down an interesting lead....
However here's my easy today's offer:

Cheers

Now I'm at an advantage here!!!!

Yes, very easy I'm afraid - if you go to Britsim or Flightsim you can download my FS9/FSX model of the one & only...............

Miles M13 Hobby.

Mind you I have not seen that picture before!!!

I even managed to locate the Wind tunnel report thanks to the Librarian at the FAST museum in Farnborough.

Thank you BG, here is my offering:

[Moses03]

Hawker Woodcock methinks but not sure of the variant. Looks like a Bristol Jupiter IV so maybe a MkII?

[Dev One]

Moses, Not sure which mark, just known to me as a Hawker Woodcock. Photo obviously taken at Brooklands as had to wipe out the name on the Hangar in background.
Well done & a slug or two for you
Keith

[lefty]

'tis the Woodcock II prototype..

[Moses03]

Thanks Lefty.

Gone floatin'....

[lefty]

Pretty certain that's a Meridionali Ro.26 in seaplane guise.....

[Moses03]

Certainly is. Looks a little underpowered if you ask me.
A pint of grog for the Scotsman.

[lefty]

Thanks Kevin. Stroke of luck really - stumbled across a photo of the landplane with the same paint job !

[lefty]

Moving on - here's a zappy wee number which sadly suffered an early demise - along with its creator......

[Moses03]

Crashed two years before I was born. Shame as it was an interesting design.

[lefty]

Obviously Moses has sussed this one out. Anyone else ??

[Dev One]

Tried a fairly simple google for pusher & homebuilt deltas, but no joy, only some Lippish copies. So it looks as if the towel has been offered!
Keith

[lefty]

Over to Texas...... or Holland ???

[Moses03]

Tis the Dean Delt-Air 250.

Here is a four engine bomber of the push pull variety...

[lefty]

Everyone else snoozing ? This is the Piaggio P.3 bomber from 1923. (that's BG fifth from left...)

Moses will not mind if I press on, so here's something different - we've had a floating aggie - now here's one for when you fall out with your neighbouring farmer......

[pomme homme]

That's the Iomax ArchAngel, conveniently placed in front of their pavilion at the Paris Salon of 2013. I note that it was then being marketed as a 'border patrol' aircraft. Was it rather prescient for the manufacturer to adopt this approach when pitching to a European market? Did it know something that didn't become so obvious to the rest of we Europeans until more recently!

As to your previous offering, Lefty, I was a tad puzzled by you posting the answer, yesterday, and then taking it down before reposting it today.

[lefty]

Thought I had taken it down fairly swiftly, PH - to let BG have a go, as it was in his territory. Don't want to hog the forum!

Anyway, you're on the ball with the big ugly IOMAX - let's hope it never gets used anywhere..... (how's the cider????)

[pomme homme]

..... (how's the cider????)

It's not a cider week, even though I have six bins of apples awaiting pressing and I haven't yet shaken the trees down. No, this week's wine. I've just picked two bins of grapes, which I'll press later today. That should make six or seven dozen bottles of dry wine wine. But enough of this alcohol (can one get enough?). Here's an interesting little canard. One of the few that don't have anything to do with Burt Rutan!

Hi P-H
An example of the ever expanding flock of RJ-03 Ibis homebuilts by father/son team Roger and Jean-Claude Junqua.
There is also one on the Dutch register

[Baragouin]

Hi Moses!
Your post #11843.
This is proof of how frustrating some times this thread can be! I have been looking all the time into the Breda's but overlooked completely the Piaggio's...(Yet I have a very nice pic of the Piaggio P3....)besides thanks for pointing out to a pic of mine I didn't know I had!
Well, Always "Ad Maiora"!
Cheers
BG

[pomme homme]

Now why am I not surprised, Walter, that the Ibis presented you with such little difficulty! That illustrated is the prototype, still very active in Western France. I last saw it earlier this month. Anyhow it's over to you, sir.
