...which is correct of course
It is the SIAI/Savoia S.52 in Paraguayan colours.
Over to you, Mike.

Thank you Robert.
Can't stay away from the water for long - this one is no bathing beauty -
Macchi M.16?
Indeed it is. Over to France
As the water seems nice, let's stay in it for a while. Here's an early floater.
I think that the lesson to be learned from the attached photograph is that when one moors one's flying boat at high tide, one should ascertain where it will be at low tide. In this case, I must assume that the pilot failed to do so - leaving his craft both high and dry!
A little tricky, this one. It's a Savoia S.9, I think, but it could well be the French C.A.M.S. - built equivalent
That's not the precise answer, Mike, but your reasoning is very sound and you are very close. Indeed you are so close that I don't think it makes sense for me to let this one proceed further. It was a 'mystery ship' on a French forum where the learned opinion was that it is either a SIAI S.13 or its French alter ego, the licence built CAMS C.13. Quite how and where it came to be so high and dry was not explained. Over to Scotland.
Thanks Mike. Spent a lot of time on the Savoias 9,12 and 13 - a bewildering variety of strutting arrangements, tail shapes, motors, etc, but unlike your learned friend, plumped for the 9 !
This one is an easy twin, but I can't find it as having appeared here before, so -
No taker for the Caproni Ca 308 Borea?

Apparently not, Uli - maybe they are all too busy with Christmas preparations... over to you -
Here comes my Christmas Goose (actually a re-post but the picture has disappeared from the thread long-ago). However, you may identify it under the name of its constructor this time.

If I remember correctly this is the Koehl Ko-1 aka Loessl/Koehl Flying Wing.
I saw some pictures of the Koehl aircraft accidentally some time ago but don't remember where.
The same Koehl flew the Junkers W 33 "Bremen" across the Atlantic from East to West.
Rather difficult to find some information about that bird.
You have it Robert
Built by the Weimarer Ingenieurschule m.b.H. in 1933.

Thanks, Uli.
Here is another biplane.
Robert, I think that is an Avia BH-33
Well done, Mike!
This is one of the prototypes of the Avia BH-33 which look quite different as the later production aircraft.
Over to Scotland, please
Should be an easy fling wing related to big name in aviation.

Yep, a lot of that going on.
While we were out, was in a bookstore yesterday and saw this really nifty board game. You build your Golden Age airline up, plan routes, construct airports, figure out passenger revenues etc.

Helicopter is US but not in Aerofiles.

Think that's the Vertical Hummingbird ?
Don't think this one has been here before -
