OK fellows, I want the specific model number of this one, and what was unusual about it ?

This could be a Bernard 86 driven by a german diesel engine derived from the Bernard 82B3 "Bombardier de represailles"....(or am I totally wrong?!)

You are absolutely right, BG - this is actually the one fitted with a Jumo V while waiting for its CLM 'Lille' licence-built engine. Back to Italy !

Thanks Lefty!
Since we are in France let's stay there....what's the name of this (probably home made) monoplane?
Cheers

I have it as the Guedon Monoplane, designed by a M. Guedon. That is all I have. I imagine PH has more on it!

I love the smell of diesel in the morning...

Oh no, it's not grainy enough for me!

Around 535 of these were produced. The diesel was a 1946 variant.

**lefty** · June 9th, 2016, 04:27

Stinson 10 Voyager ?

***Moses03*** · June 9th, 2016, 05:11

Basically yes Mike, this particular diesel version is a 105 but 10 works for me.

The story here: https://books.google.com/books?id=Af...diesel&f=false

Have at it-

**lefty** · June 9th, 2016, 08:09

Here's one you could have bought post-war for a three-figure sum.....

**lefty** · June 10th, 2016, 02:45

East coast USA. Lycoming engine.

***Moses03*** · June 10th, 2016, 03:40

I have seen this one before. Trying to jog my memory...

**wout** · June 10th, 2016, 04:10

Hi Mike

The Ross RS-2L (L for Lycoming?) ?

***Moses03*** · June 10th, 2016, 04:16

Got it! Just unearthed this from my archives.

Edit: Wout beat me to the punch!

**lefty** · June 10th, 2016, 04:26

Yes, Walter nicked it ! I was a little out with the price - the original 1939 version was $875.

Over to Holland.

**wout** · June 11th, 2016, 01:25

Thank you Mike

Sorry Kevin

, but here is another your chance!
All I can disclose is that the regisration on the aircraft does not contain an N.

**wout** · June 11th, 2016, 12:10

Sorry, sorry, sorry

She has a registration containing an N, but not the FAA way

**lefty** · June 12th, 2016, 00:31

Walter, my search for aircraft manufactured in Nicaragua, Nepal and Nigeria failed to turn up this Tucano clone, so I'll have to leave it to chaps with more up-to-date books than me ! (Norway too!)

The scenery looks like somewhere hottish.....

**wout** · June 12th, 2016, 01:55

Hi MIke

The N is in the five letter registration (no.4), but so many countries have five letter registrations.
You are right about the hottish scenery. You may find several (maybe all?) of the big five over there.
