Oooh, I do like to see some Romain Hugault BD artwork being used as an avatar. I doubt that my wife would let me!
Oh, and lefty, I don't wish to offend. Post Brexit, I may need to ask you to sponsor my application for Scottish nationality so that I can remain an EU national. The Auld Alliance! It's all down to my ma greet grammar, Pommette McHomme!
Hello Green and Huub-Vink
Green you were the first to reply and gave an almost exact designation however Huub-Vink gave the exact answer this being Maskine II-O an advanced trainer built by Flyvertroppernes Verkstaeder delivered in 1933 under serial O-72 ( I understand the only difference between Maskine O-I and O-II consists in the fact that the former was a single seater whereas the latter was a double seater ).
Therefore I think Huub-Vink should go ahead (unless moderators think otherwise)...
Cheers

I have info that the difference from the I O to II O was the II O had a Mercedes engine

Aussies? Swedes, methinks. The FVM Tummelisa.
Lefty is correct (as usual) . Its indeed the Swedish advanced trainer FVM Tummelisa pictured at Götenborg.
You can find its history here: http://www.avrosys.nu/aircraft/Flygk...isa/22Lisa.htm

Hello Chris
after reading the History of Danish Aviation of Ole Nicolajsen in the PDF format on the net I think it is safe to assume the following:
- Items from serial number O-56 thru O-70 (I-O) had a BMW engine
- Items from serial number O-71 thru O-78 (II-O) had a Mercedes engine

If you have time and are willing to do so please read the a.M. PDF

Treading precariously here, I give you an obscurity, and one about which I am not 100% sure ! Pretty certain that at least one of you will put me right !
Hi MIke
The little known Carmier T-10 (or Model 10) homebuilt from France. F-WBBG by Mr. Pierre Carmier, built 1946
Indeed it is, Walter. Check this one out in AviaFrance and you will find a rather different-looking machine - apparently rebuilt after the war. Over to the Low Lands.
Hi Mike . Thanks for the info.
How about this nice hing wing turboprop job.
Hi Wout.
Looking at the tail - Antonov An-2?? That's been through a band-saw and had a nose transplant?
Looks like the SibNIA TVS-2DT conversion of the An-2..
I also like the looks of the -2MS model:

Wout posted this one back on July 14, 2015.

Hi all
Indeed the TVS-2-DT by SibNIA (Siberian Aeronautical Research Institute in Novosibirsk. SibNIA is very active to prolong the An-2 life.
TVS-2MS (aka An-2MS). First flown 2012, this retained An-2 wings and tail, but changed to TPE331 turbine. At last 6 already completed.
TVS-2-DT: Entirely new composite material wings and also TPE331 turbine. Test aircraft was monoplane (as in picture) with initially An-2 style tail. Test aircraft later modified as biplane with new composite lower wings, TPE331. prominent winglet/interconnecting struts and initially still the An-2 tail. Later a new squared/swept vertical tail was fitted and seems this variant is planned for production from 2017 onwards and reportedly a glass cockpit will then be introduced.
Have seen pictures with designations TVS-2MS (no hyphen) and TVS-2-DT (hyphen). Understand that new designation TVS-2 may have to do with Antonov not being involved.
Mr. Green correct on An-2 connection, but Ferry gave correct designation. Kevin correct on double posting, but different photo makes it look different aircraft (please say yes )
Ferry, forum is yours!
Incredible how the An-2 is still, almost 70 years after its first flight, the best aircraft for the job!
Onwards with this ungainly twin:
Intel i9-13900 Raptor Lake , Be Quiet! Dark rock slim cooler, 32 Gb Corsair DDR5 RAM, MSI Z790 Tomahawk motherboard, Asus RTX 4060Ti 16Gb, Thermaltake 1050 Watt PSU, Windows 11 64-bit 1 m2, 4 SSD, 2 HDD.
Walter - I have posted repeats several times after unearthing a rare photo from a different angle so no foul at all on the mutated AN-2.
Yes, those large, regular fields certainly ain't in dear old Blighty. Not too many straight lines in European landscapes.
It's the Foo Fighter !
