    A Caproni Ca.5 perhaps?

    Correction: Ca.57 - (or Breda M-1) - airliner conversion of war-surplus Ca.44s.

    Has a Teutonic look about it - possibly a Caspar ? - can't pin this one down....

  8. #14708
    The look is alright, but Caspar isn't.

    ... and the beer goes to Scotland
    I didn’t expect any problem with this one.

    It is indeed the LFG V.58 (several photos exist).

    (several photos exist) - quite possibly, gX, but not in any of my books, nor on the net, that I can find !

    Anyway, here's a nice floater - on a glassy sea....(or possibly a lake...)

    Here's the original -

    This looks suspiciously like one of those wooden decoy aircraft from WW2 - shades of Heinkel/Kawasaki there ? The undercarriage looks particularly unlikely !

    Finnish Adaridi

    As you know I just got Lear job so in the process of moving. So Open House

  24. #14724
    Good spot, Chris, with the little Finn - and good luck with the new job (flying Lear35's and Falcons - some have it tough.....!)

    I have nothing in the wings, so - anybody like to step in with a new mystery, please ?
