    Cheers
    BG

    Thank you BG.
    And thank you especially for posting a challenge that was within my reach. You guys are so impressive with for-me incredibly obscure contraptions.

    let's see how long this one will last:

    Hi Dan_Pub
    The Alliet-Lariviére AL-06 Frégate?
    If correct, what regi does yours have?. I know of F-WDVR

  4. #12754
    Hi Wout,

    Alliet-Lariviére AL-6 indeed.
    My photo appears to be taken at an exhibition, and there is no registration visible. I did not erase it.

    Well done, over to you!

    I understand this one could be identified with two designations. Either one will count and sadly no bonus for the second.

    The AL-06 was exhibited at the Paris Salon. I remember the photograph appearing either here or on the Key Publishing 'wot plane' thread.

  7. #12757
    The AL-06 is one of my favorite twin boom pushers. Maybe we could interest Keith in modeling one?

    PH is correct. Here is some video of her on display at the the 1946 Salon:

    I have four designations, Walter ! How about Caproni PS.1, Pallavicino PS.1, Caproni Ca.166, or Caproni Ca.303 ? I think I'll settle for Ca.166 It's early in the morning so we'll save the Ramazzotti for later.........

    Before we put the twin-boomer to bed, some more pics -

    Hi Mike
    Learning every day! I would have settled for the PS-1 or Ca-166 (understand the PS-1 was rebult/modified as Ca.166).
    Thank you for the additional photos (Mike) and film clip (Kevin).

    Mike, your turn, please

    Now there is a challenge, lot of guesswork will be needed for the interior methinks. I'll add it to the list....

    I'd imagine, Keith, if you did an appropriate interior, there ain't going to be too many people challenging it !

    I'm going to break the rules here - this floater, sadly, never flew, due to the death of its builder, but it has a truly fascinating history....an extra dram if you can tell me said builder's other famous creation !

    Now I remember why I remembered. It's because the AL-06 was exhibited right in front of the ill fated NC.211 Cormoran at the 1946 Salon - as can be seen in the attached photograph.

    Yup. Those wingless machines never really took off, did they ?

    Thats cheating!!!! But as you say if someone did challenge it, it means they will have to share their information!

    Hi Mike
    Your blue and silver beauty is the Goldfinch Amphibian 161 by Leslie Goldfinch. Now in the Norfolk & Suffolk Aviation Museum.
    Would ypu know whether the engine is A65 pf C90?

  16. #12766
    That's the one, Walter - designed by 'Bill' Goldfinch who built, of course, the legendary Colditz glider.
    Haven't a clue about the engine !

    This is a one-of, but the builder has many more to his name.

    Hi Mike
    Ferry`s link shows the turbine power 8-seater nearing completion. Thanks Ferry!
    Talo mentions that this is his 12th aircraft. Have found 6 or 7 sofar. Maybe the others were existing types and not of own design?
    C-GGMC Canuck 265 (not sure)
    C-GGAC Canyck Samsom 280
    C-GFZU Eres II
    C-GOID Petrel (the turbiube 8-seater), Was initially awarded C-FRGU, but changed to C-GOID
    C-FMUZ Samson 210
    C-GULD Sitabria
    C-GUMP Super Pacer 200 (210?)

    The guy builds 12 aircraft in a wooden shack in the backwoods ? Wow!
