The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Hi Ferry
The brandnew Albi UL-39 from Czech Rep. Scaled-down Aero L-39. Engine a BMW SR1000RR driving a 13-bladed fan/prop in rear fuselage.

[Ferry_vO]

Yes, the Jihlavan Albi it is!

[wout]

Luckily the crew saved her from denting her beautiful nose.

Morning all ! Looks like one of Anthony's T.9 bombers has landed awkwardly.......in fact, the only T.9 ??

[wout]

Hi Mike (hope it is not too early for this!)
The only T-9 (T-IX) built. She never flew again after this mishap (the u/c collapsed after landing).
The playing field is all yours!

[lefty]

Thanks Walter !

Time for a grainy floater - expect a hit from Texas........

[wout]

I`ll say B and let Texas (or surroundings) say A

[Moses03]

It is the B like Walter said. The Aerocar Coot Model B that is.

I am away from the mainframe and Walter had it so over to the Dutchman.

[wout]

Thank you Kevin
A lightplane with a name that contains a contradiction.

[wout]

Not from Europe or USA. Her elegant lines earned her an outstanding original homebuilt award.

[lefty]

Her elegant lines

Beauty is, of course, in the eye of the beholder.......

[pomme homme]

Junoesque, peut-être?

[wout]

Hi PH
Juno as in Juno Alaska? In that case you are getting closer, distance wise.
Mike, I was told by Maxwell (the designer/builder) he liked her lines because these were, well, different .

[pomme homme]

When I made by reference to Junoesque I was thinking more in terms of a generously proportioned body, Walter!

[lefty]

Aye, but Juno had curves, Mike. This one is not exactly Rubenesque -more School of Lego........

[pomme homme]

A fair point, Mike. Maybe Junoesque in the Cubist style? None of which takes us any closer to identifying Walter's mystery aeroplane!

[lefty]

Indeed. Come on, gX,ff, BG, Moses - one of you knows.......

[giruXX]

I thought it were French, but France is excluded this time

[wout]

From Juno (the one in Alaska) go south and you should end up in Canada, the country of Maxwell A Say where he built his Mini Jumbo.
Regi C-GBZF. Engine Lycoming O-235, two-seater, first flown 1983.
I have no further details as Google or similar provides none. Btw, the picture came fom an old EAAC magazine, the only place where I ever found info on her.

Grab your chance

[giruXX]

It wasn't that impossible

here is what I found in hindsight

[lefty]

Looks like the design got altered along the road - different wing struts, cowl, etc.

[wout]

Hi giruXX
I am being punished for getting rid of my JAWAs (although I never had this one). Thanks very much

[giruXX]

Looks like the design got altered along the road - different wing struts, cowl, etc.

A small modification could make the difference between (award-winning) 'elegance' and 'junoesque'

[giruXX]

May I supply this in return to Wout’s open house? (I hope there is no discussion about elegance with this one)

[Moses03]

Methinks the one and only Westland Wizard!
