Winds are blowing in the Southland...
Moses has this one, but is being modest - any other takers ?
Maybe a link to a flying car posted not so long ago?
OK, I know at least two of you have this one bagged - time for one of you shrinking violets to get this thing moving again !
Hi Mike
No need to become abusive. A modified Grumman G-44 Widgeon?
The Grumman bits were built into the Southernaire BM-11 of Houston, TX.
Edit:
Okay, this shrinking violet will move things along with an interesting (amphibian?) that showed up in another thread recently. (It has a pusher configuration but either the prop is not installed or the photo is so grainy one can't quite make it out).

Like the previous BM-11, this one was built from parts of an earlier amphibian. Powered by a Menasco engine, circa 1939.
Not obvious enough for my research I'm afraid, mind you it looks as if it could do with some outriggers before trying to float it!!!

Well that clinches it - thought it looked a bit like the Argonaut design, did a bit of digging, and came up with the White Gull.
Aerofiles says it was a 4-seater - must have been cosy in there !
White Gull it is. Have a pint.
Over to the UK-
Needed your clues there - obscure indeed !
Try this one -
Hmm, Chris posted a biplane before the Crash........it must have fallen into a Black Hole, sir !
Rgr missing biplane. It had an Avia vibe to it the one quick glance I had before the outage.
see that were back up with my last entry missing. Again. Can't upload pix at this time maybe problem with server won't take .jpg. Will try again later. Not Avia
If anyone can upload at this time "Open House"
Chris
Hello boys and girls welcome back!
The missing (or disappeared) plane must be a Kawanishi K11 [J-BAME] (If I still remember correctly!)....Cheers
BG
Right on Baragouin. Good eye for being up short time.
Over to you.
Chris
Looks like the attachments are working again.
Will be out of town a couple of days visiting family and wanted to wish the mystery thread regulars a Merry Christmas (or any other holiday you celebrate).
Best,
Kevin
Thanks Kevin - enjoy your rib roast or whatever you guys have who've already devoured your turkeys ! - and a lovely Christmas to all of you -
Before BG posts - let me point out the alternative mystery currently running - Chris' avatar !
Have had the magnifying glass on it and my guess is a little Irish number...........
(the extended smiley list seems to have been a victim of crash ?)
No mystery in the avatar since answer in my "about me" info. Which company? As far as I know they used the most of them civil in the US than anyone.
Chris
Hi Chris!
Yes your mystery wasn't that easy but it prompted me to go ahead with it!
Anyway boys and girls before we sink into the Xmas atmosphere let me submit following "folded up" mystery....
To all my friends from the thread and their families please enjoy your Xmas days thoroughly!
BG
Long delay whilst Christmas overindulgence is paid for.......
Anyway, back to business. Immediate reaction to BG's mystery was Kinner, but discarded that notion. How about the Aero 200 ?
