The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

@Moses: Looks to be Russian?

@SgtReilly: Only the one that solves a mystery gets to post a new one.
It might also be wise to remove the name of the aircraft from the filename..

Not Russian...

Yup, you jumped the gun a bit there SR. And as Ferry said, you have to be careful with file names. There are a lot of nefarious types lurking out there..

Can't imagine who you're talking about.....:icon_twi:

And if it's not Russian, Ferry, it's probably from the darkest Balkans....

***Moses03*** · February 16th, 2011, 16:23

Not a Balkan bogey...

***Moses03*** · February 17th, 2011, 04:15

Okay, here it is re-engined and re-propped with a 3 blader.

***noddy*** · February 17th, 2011, 04:42

How about the Amoit 354?

***Moses03*** · February 17th, 2011, 05:31

Does have that look but not a Amiot.

**sgtreilly** · February 17th, 2011, 11:23

Moses03, is it a Potez?

***Moses03*** · February 17th, 2011, 13:00

Looks like a Potez too but not one.

**DHC2Pilot** · February 17th, 2011, 14:27

CANT Z.1018 Leone circa 1939

***Moses03*** · February 17th, 2011, 15:48

John to the rescue.

The prototype looked much different from the single fin production model.

**sgtreilly** · February 17th, 2011, 17:27

With that tail I thought it looked Italian or French. Frankly I was trying to see what the uniforms of the men below were to get the nationality. A picture tells a thousand words.

**DHC2Pilot** · February 17th, 2011, 18:56

Sorry for the extremely poor quality of the next one, but it's all I have. If anyone has a better pic of it then please share.

**DHC2Pilot** · February 18th, 2011, 12:55

One-off prototype, first flight 1934.

**DHC2Pilot** · February 18th, 2011, 16:37

This one would be much EC-er if you knew where to look. :mixedsmi:

***Moses03*** · February 19th, 2011, 05:31

Looks French-ish. How's that for detective work.

***Ferry_vO*** · February 19th, 2011, 05:36

Isn't EC a Spanish registration? Very little to be found about Spanish pre-WW2 aircraft btw!

***Moses03*** · February 19th, 2011, 08:55

EC...duh. Pallarols 40A.

**DHC2Pilot** · February 19th, 2011, 10:18

LOL Moses....have a cold one!

Anyone in possession of a better pic of this?

***Moses03*** · February 19th, 2011, 10:44

I have been looking for one John. Maybe Lefty can dig one out.

In the meantime, how about a pusher?

**wout** · February 19th, 2011, 11:11

Hi Kevin,
A famous name in light aircraft. The Taylor Tinkertoy by Mr. Donald E. Taylor (no idea on relationship with...) Understand it had a Chevy Corvair Monza engine.
