That reminds me of an Arado W.II

Yep over to you --found that on a site which had these photos -obviously from a German tome - any idea what this book is, gX ? The print and format are very reminiscent of Nowarra's Deutsche Luftrüstung... ?
The source of that picture is J.A. Kranzhoff: Arado-Flugezuge. Vom Doppeldecker zum Strahlflugzeug. Die deutsche Luftfahrt Vol. 31

May I suggest an elegant metal plane as the next mystery?

@ Mike: I like reading stories of survivors that resurface in a barn or something after a long time.
Here is something wacky and wonderful I happened upon not too long ago.
At your most recent Star Wars convention, perhaps ??
I'm sure Walter will be up early with the answer, so here are some clues to help.
Late 1970's effort that nosed over on it's maiden flight and crashed. The designer took the center section and rebuilt it into a twin boom pusher that was also unsuccessful. The pilot/designer was known for his WWII aircraft restorations. From --->
Still trying to work out which is the front - thought the coated person was standing at the nose of a canard pusher - but then why are the winglets the wrong way round ?
If nothing else, it would appear to be only a moderately successful snowplough.....
Hi Kevin
Donot know how to call this one-of. I think the guilty person was Bob Diemert of Carman, Manitoba.
Unless I am mistaken (what often happens) this is CF-XWO. Although that could be another product of the Diemert stable.
Found this. Wonderful.

It is the Diemert canard!With the 90F+ temps we are locked in at for several months now, I wish we had snow like in the photo!
Rgr on the documentary Mike. Watched it recently.
Thanks Lefty for letting us all aware of this wonderful documentary....however I think this guy Dimert poses as a new Leonardo da Vinci....
Cheers

Bob Diemert is definitely a "character" but he's also done some significant work:

Summertime no doubt & too hot to think........? I have nothing to offer at the moment either, RW items taking priority!
Wout has the board but maybe he has been out of pocket the last day or so.
......wout has the board.......
I thought it was mine for keeps! Now it turns out you guys also want to play. Not fair!
Next one is sneaky. I donod know what it is myself. My best guess would be something post-war (WW2).
and now for the picture. You have to excuse me. Temps today expected to rise to 30º C.
Wout, that's the Rinehart-Whelan Monoplane of 1930.
Have a look here (page 5) or at aerofiles
BTW, I really love that anecdote of the SR-71 starting on page 4 of that link.
Thank you fabulousfour
Have changed my mind (again) and like to continue playing.
Very nice link, thank you!
Had Fab4 not been so quick off the mark I would have suggested - quite erroneously - that it looked as if someone had chopped the rear fuselage of a Hanriot H-182 and then rigged up a replacement using, primarily, scaffolding poles!
I see that the weather in the low countries is going to be on the cooler side. Here 36⁰ C is on the cards for this afternoon. But what's the betting that Texas trumps that!
