Apologies for the quality but not got time to sort anything better right now. To get you started, its a proper aircraft with spinny bits on top, and its British. (and according to my source it DID work)

Weir W-5 or connection ?
Wier W-5 it is.
For the round engine fans
If it looks like a Fairchild, it must be a Fairchild. In this case a Fairchild M-84 of 1945.
Feeling pretty good about this one so I will forge ahead here. Next up, a 6 passenger airliner-
Hello chaps ! On one of my infrequent excursions to the Outhouse - still waiting for components for a rebuild. Turns out a leaky CPU water cooling block was to blame. Ah well.
Moses, that aficionado of 30's airliners, has posted an Arado V.1, methinks.
As I cannot scan at the moment (too much hassle installing drivers for everything on my wee netbook), please someone else carry on !
Easy pickings for Lefty on the Arado.

Came across this the other day...

Have been there and seen that one plenty of times so I'll leave it for someone else.
Thanks, James. Guess it's about halfway between us, but I only visited for the first time last Sunday. More pictures to follow in due course.
I'm sure someone will get this forlorn old bird in the next few hours, if not minutes...

Well, I never knew she was still around......
I suspect that when it's named, I'll smack my forehead and think that I should have known it, but darned if it will come to mind.
Non researched guess ......Airspeed Ambassador?
Wrong track, Naki, right alphabetically !
I am kicking myself for having passed within a mile or two of this location last week - forgot all about it !
It's the Avro 706 Ashton; I was looking for a propliner, but this was a jet engine testbed.

Hmm looks French or Belguim?
You are on the right track ,Naki.

Me too. Renard was the first to spring to mind, but can't find it.
It's French and from 1922/23. An earlier, quite extravagant, design from this manufacturer was posted earlier in here.

Would this be the Buscaylet-de Monge 5/2 ???
I have it listed as the type 52C-1, but I'm 99% sure it is the same aircraft.
An article about this aircraft can be found here, though the one in the photo has slightly different wing struts:

Well I'm back in business now - sort of - at least the scanner works.
Here is another wee chopper.
Fairey Ultralight.
Would have been a great success if market conditions were different. The cheap price of fuel etc meant Bell 47's were practical to operate and the ultrlight wasn't really needed, the idea is streets ahead of the Robinson or Schewizer though.
Pretty much certain here so I'll go ahead.
Another proper aircraft, shouldn't be too difficult.
