The one-and-only Renault O1. 'It is not known whether the aircraft ever flew ' says one source, but, who cares....Renaults usually go pretty well !

Here is a picture of the 'other end' and a 3-view, courtesy of Davilla & Soltan. 2 Renault 450hp, so not so sluggish...

Here's something to keep you going. I can't find any trace of it being here before, which I find odd, so if it has, apologies.
(The mysterous elevation of the rear fuselge has not been done by me, and I don't think Photoshop existed in those days !)

Thanks, Uli.
Strange that there is practically nothing about the Clemson at aerofiles except for the year.
Back to biplanes.

We have here a homebuilt aircraft constructed from plans first published in the late 1970ies.
Not a one-off, there are several machines with photos at airliners.net

This single-seater can be found at aerofiles, but without a photo.
Recommended engine is a Continental with 65 hp.

Not sure about the struts but could this be a Wolf W-11?

I thought the plane looked small in the photo. Lovely photo it is.
Keeping the biplane theme with this curious entry...

This was a testbed and seen in many forms. Open cockpit/enclosed cockpit, various engines, 2 and 3 bladed props, tested on floats even.
It looks like a Bristol Mercury radial in this particular photo but I can't find documentation for it.
From a well-known company.

Nobody else biting. Is it a Vought O2U-4 ?

Mike, it is the Vought V-70, based on the O3U which is real similar to the O2U.
Not a direct hit but close enough.
Over to Scotland!
