    USA, 1960ish. Same builder also constructed a small biplane and Formula One racer, both of own design.
    Sadly the pictured aircraft was lost in a crash 1972.

    Hi Pomme Homme
    No Cassutt relationship (AFAIK) . I think the subject aircraft may have been more for aerobatics than air racing.
    However, the Formula One racer by the same designer DID strongly resemble a Cassutt.

    Hi Moses! The closest I have is the AISA HM9 But I doubt she's the one unless some variants with enclosed cockpit have been built!

    Not AISA in origin. From a well known company in the UK...

    These frames belong to the Martin-Baker MB 1, an ancestor of the ejection seats, so to say.

    That egg looks like its a model - the engine looks like a model deisel.
    As for the M-B1 I should have had the courage of my convictions....Ah well!
