Back to biplanes again.
Fokker V.3?
Another mystery as a side project:
http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...rplane-is-This
Most probably this must be the Fokker V.2 as I think the V.3 was a triplane.
No clue about the aircraft behind the link. I first thought a Vatour, but the intake isn't correct and seems a bit Eastern Europe like. I checked the engines from the Canberra, but this is not the one on the picture.

It is indeed the Fokker V.3.
V.3 was attributed for a long time to the Fokker Triplane but that was incorrect. The first Triplane was the V.4
And the V.2 has a different tail.

Thanks Robert.
On with a fancy fellow that predates the Fokker.
Funny, I wasn't aware. I checked the aircraft in the book which was published by Fokker the celebrate the factory's 60th birthday and in this book the V.3 is still linked to the triplane.......It is indeed the Fokker V.3.

For Uli.
It crashed in 1913 killing the pilot and passenger sadly.
surprisingly not in this thread:

first flight in 1967

Well it looks like a Zlin 42, Uli ? On second thoughts., make that a 43 !
Well it is nothing more than the 42, Mike. Take a gulp

The 42 had a distinct forward wing sweep, Uli, which was removed in the 43. Could be just the angle of photo?
Anyway here is something that does have some forward sweep.......
.... with red and green wing panels in a later use

Well Uli knows this one - no other takers ? West European, a one-off from a consortium, now used for aerofoil research.
Uli, if nobody else comes in, I think you should keep things rolling on or declare OH.
I think this is the LFU 205 from
Indeed it is, Robert.Over to you..
Thanks, Mike!
On with a high-winger.
Interesting, Robert. This is the Renard R.31/32 - possibly the 31 converted with Gnome-Rhone engine and canopy, but still with 2-blade prop. Later called the R.32 before a further engine change to the Hispano Y-12 860hp.
Les Avions Renard goes into this in some detail, but without a photo of this particular configuration !
It is indeed the Renard R.32 OO-ARY with a Gnome-Rhone.Unfortunately I have no information regarding the prop configuration.
Does the Renard book give definite information, whether there were one or two R.32, Mike?
I could find evidence for both.
Suds for Mike
Thanks Robert.
There were two R-32's - the first Hispano model was delivered to the Air Force but crashed shorlty after due to fuel problems, the pilot parachuting to safety.
The Gnome-Rhone model was, in all probablity, ultimately dismantled, restored to R-31 configuration and returned to the Air Force.
Sorry for the delay - have been distracted with other matters here - may I please declare OH ?.
Many thanks for that, Mike!
