Yes, but there are subtle differences! No Piaggio though.

Uli that's a nice pix of the M.40 I haven't seen Is it a clean copy? I would like a original copy. Looks like the M.40 had helium in the wings.
Another Biplane.

G'day campers. That is a Woodson Sport 3-A.
That she is have fun with the next one.

Ah, that is the Dussot, Félix Bosano's entry for the Marine Aircraft Competition at Deauville, 1913. It apparently got off the water, took a nose dive and sank...
Spot on Mike! There was a reason it wore the number 13 I guess.
Over to the lowlands.
Thanks Kevin - glad you didn't offer me a brew. I've just returned from judging ciders in the Kingdom of Fife Beer Festival. Tough work, that, but someone's got to do it.......
Here's a stuffy dame who has chugged into this forum before, but many, many years ago.
That looks like the De Havilland Doncaster.
As you say, Kevin ! Robert is spot-on with the ungainly de Havilland - over to him - (a nice vintage cider...)
Thanks, Mike!
At least the Doncaster monoplane seems to have been an improvement over the De Havilland biplanes like the DH.34.
Maybe the time wasn't ripe for such a "modern" design...
Here is another biplane.
From a well known manufacturer.
At least 2 planes of the type were built.
The Glenn Martin 70 Commercial

Spot on, Uli, it is the Martin 70 Commercial.
Next mystery, please.
Have the photoshop mice been at that tail, Uli, or is that the correct shape ?
I can’t tell. The source is famous for the use of touch-ups. I don’t have seen any other picture of the craft, so far.

From a still (mainly for his engines) well-known manufacturer.

Apart from his sport aircraft he built only radial engines, AFAIK
The company disappeared after WW2. Founder died in 1957.

Maybe an old Salmson?

Could this be the Kinner Coupe from 1926 ?
No it can't because mine is a two-seater (but you are barking up the right tree!)

That did it.
I kept looking for a 3-seater!
