Sorry not a Huff-Daland. She's western european and the manufacturer was a fierce anti-nazi.....

Which sounds like Anthony - I thought at first the strutting was a bit Fokkery but can't pin down a model with splayed outer struts and extended ailerons.

OK enough of this....she is the Raab-Katzenstein RK9 "Grasmücke"which as you know is a 1927 light aircraft.
As I will be tied up for the next few hours please feel free to carry on.
Cheers

Hope there's someone still functioning out there !

Here's a zappy little number..

**Dev One** · January 24th, 2013, 23:54

Parnall Imp?? I haven't found a photo yet, but Wiki description fits!

**lefty** · January 25th, 2013, 01:18

On the nail, Keith - I was just about to give a clue. Parnall made some very interesting aircraft.....

Over to you.

**Dev One** · January 25th, 2013, 04:09

Yes I'd forgotten about Parnall's - in this case it was a search for Pobjoy engined a/c that found it - & yes there are good photos on the web - thats my only source - no ancient books left! Could be a future Sim - I've put it in the to do section!
Anyway try this:
Attachment 79680

Clue - only one built - location Brooklands
Keith

**lefty** · January 26th, 2013, 08:38

It's the Dudley Watt DW2.

**Dev One** · January 26th, 2013, 10:06

Well done! a single malt for the Scot!
It is possible that my father helped with this aircraft - I know that he worked for Dudley Watt converting the SE5A to the DW1 as previously show here & subsequently worked for Brooklands Aviation.
Next please.

Thank you,Keith - sipping a wee Bruichladdich as we speak.....

Here's a long, lean, floater.

***Moses03*** · January 27th, 2013, 10:06

That a push-pull arrangement or just the pull?

**lefty** · January 27th, 2013, 13:22

A pair of Hispano-Suizas....

Was looking for a photo of a Tellier 500 and stumbled across the Donnet-Denhaut D.D.10 by accident!

**lefty** · January 27th, 2013, 20:32

Happy accident, Kevin !

Curious about the Tellier, though - I looked for a photo for you and came across quite contradictory information. This photo claims to be the Tellier 400 (2x200hp H/S motors - 30 built) but in another book a 3-view of the same aircraft is called the Tellier T.5 (2x250hp H/S - 10 built). Aviafrance claims only one built.

As ever with French aircraft history, you pays your money and takes your choice......

***Moses03*** · January 28th, 2013, 05:22

Thanks for the the photo Mike.

Up next, a non-floater.

**lefty** · January 29th, 2013, 07:16

That, sir, is a Sablatnig P III.

***Moses03*** · January 29th, 2013, 08:11

Yep, and in Swiss service somewheres.

**lefty** · January 29th, 2013, 13:15

A smart tourer..

**lefty** · January 31st, 2013, 04:19

...from a west European country.

Here's a later version.

***Moses03*** · January 31st, 2013, 09:25

Looks like one of the 400 series Farmans but I can't find an exact match.

**stiz** · January 31st, 2013, 09:59

farman f406 ?

**lefty** · January 31st, 2013, 12:18

Well you fellows are in the right neck of the woods,

, but she's not a Farman !

If you look at some of my posts in a different thread.....:mixedsmi:

Quite a spacious machine - like the steering wheel......
