OK fellows - dumbo here posted this last year (could have sworn I hadn't) - the Cabanes-Saissac. Right, here's a floater that hopefully is new to the forum at least......
I guess it's the SPCA Type E-5
_
gX
and what about the SPCA T-3 BN4 ?

Here is what I have on it from my archives. Thought BG was correct on the Type 10.
Well I have it as SPCA Type 10. We are talking French designations here, so there is bound to be disputation ! However, the beer is going to BG......
Thanks Lefty yes french designations are really intricate and we got here at least three different ones....
anyway here's my today's offer it isn't particularly difficult but the pic is very cute:
BG
I see a lot of Curtiss XF9C-1 in it (Model 58) but it might be a variant which I cannot detect.

Oops! I have to change my mind it is the General Aviation XFA-1
_
gX
That's because it's the Atlantic (American Fokker-designed) XFA-1.
Yes, GX beat me by a short head -just shows it ain't only French machines that have multiple designations - this one has about four !
Browsing old journals I found this obscure wee thing.
Would anybody here know more about it?

Hey gX, I have it as the Cambilargiu Folz C.F.1.

Thank you Kevin! That's a great find (at least for me). I was desperately searching for Camhilargiu Aparently a typo in my wee source.
Over to you

Lefty swoops in for the kill. Krapish...a bit unfortunate name there, despite reports that it flew well.
Here's something a bit newer and really quite a pleasing and well-balanced design, considering its provenance . Naturally, it failed.
What a delightful thought, BG if you were my nephew (!) it would give me an excuse to visit Tuscany......
However, the real treasure trove of pictures is in Moses' vault, a great brass-bound chest he keeps in his cellar. I believe that it will be bequeathed to the Smithsonian Museum - but he's a mere youngster, remember....
Hi Mike
