Hi Chris, that is the one (or better said the second one)
See following link for details. Scroll down and you will also find an English translation.

Strange looking one should be easy.

Beta Technologies Ava XC. Didn't readily see an engine so of course it is electric.

Thanks Chris.
And now for something completely different.

Didn't think this one would last an hour!
Eight produced in this variant. From a well known European company.

Then it should be the Nieuport-Delage NiD 390.
At first glance this bird looked Japanese somehow but I couldn't find anything similar in that region. Now I know why

Thanks, Kevin.
Keeping the biplane theme. Sorry for the blurry phot.

Think that's a Svenska Aero Jaktfalken, but which one ? J-6 ?

Thanks again, Robert.
Here's one that should last about 5 minutes, and I am off to bed now, so if anyone in a different time zone gets it, please continue !
(Don't think it has appeared here before)

That is the Nungesser Hydravion of 1923. I have a couple of photos of it but never seen it actually in the water.
Pressing on as Mike suggests since I am across the pond. Another one that should not be too difficult.

Like the Nungesser, this one ended up in the water a few minutes after the photo was taken.
It sank.

The Catron & Fisk CF-10, methinks.

Rgr that Mike. One of the ill-fated Dole Derby entrants.

Thanks Kevin. This next one will probably have several alternative designations -

Is that an unsubtle hint that it's French? If so, could it be one of the myriad post-WW2 reworkings of the Piper Cubs abandoned by the US forces as they pressed through the country in 1944?

SOH-CM-2023
Absolutely, Mike. It has a Minié engine, and there were three examples built. I bet Walter knows it !

Do you mean absolutely on both counts as I haven't yet found a French post-1944 reworked Piper Cub that looks like yours and has a Minié (presumably Horus) motor.

French, 1949, and a reworked Cub with alterations to wing, tail, gear, as well as power plant.
The later Continental-engined example is in the 1000 Photos site. Go dig !

..... then I think that it must be the original Badez-Giraud-Mercier Bagimer (although I cannot find mention of more than two being constructed, these being F-PFAR, which originally was the Bagimer but became the Bagimer II when the 65 hp Continental was installed, and F-PFOK, the handiwork of a member of the Pithiviers Aéro Club).

You got there, Mike. The third possible build was mentioned on the 1000 Photo site -

Thank you, Mike. Daft thing is that I went through the same book three times, but missed this one completely on the first two occasions. I put it down to age!
Moving on, you might say that the aeroplane below was designed to spread its wings and fly. You might also be forgiven for expecting it to have snow on its boots!
