Spot on with the Bulgarian, Carlo.
I agree with what you say - I abandoned another well-known forum because it became so contentious and ill-mannered - it still is ! (And I have to admit most of the culprits were British....)

Thanks Mike I'm glad you agree we are just meeting toomany ill- mannered people on our way today and we certainly require no contentions in a forum!Originally Posted by lefty

Anyway here goes my next mistery in the hope it hasn't been edited yet.

No takers yet? this biplane originates in an alpine country traditionally neutral....

With all Baragouin's clues I found it: the Swiss Farner W-11 of 1933.
I'm travelling now, so if I'm right then OH please.
That's right dan-pub the Farner W-11.
So whoever wants to step in he's more than welcome....

To keep things rolling, here is an easy one
Despite the circular cowling, the aircraft had a horizontally opposed engine.
Some hints: She later received a slightly taller canopy, a taller fin with flat rather than rounded top, a cut down rear fuselage and a more normal cowling leaving the cilinders exposed.
The registration remained unchanged though
This is how she looked with all the changes
N73834 is the FW-1 bij Festus W.Beckner from Texas. Completed around 1964, initialy flown with Continental A65, later with O-200 engine.
Open House, please
A propped up biplane to consider.
That's the Reid Rambler prototype
Right on Mike. (Sorry, smilies are not working)
Thanks Kevin - here's a single-radial-engined high-wing transport - not many of those around, eh ?
So I can delete now that plane from my list of prepared mysteries.
That is the one and only Dornier Do K1 that was later on redesigned to four engines.
On the ball, Robert !The very un-Dornier-looking Dornier it is.........over to you.
So what kind of flying wire mesh do we have here?
from: the AEG G.V

Spot on, Uli
The civilized version of the AEG G.V that was originally developed as a bomber but never used in that purpose.
Your turn, Uli
Thank you Robert,
I hope you all agree that this mysterious picture shows some kind of mystery plane

Hi giruXX
I put some money on the Boxmoth Model A by Richard Thomson. A 1975 homebuilt with socalled rhomboidal wing design.
If correct registration would be N 64492 and I will try to post a pic of the Boxmoth B which has somewhat different lines.
Hi wout,
you invested your money well.
It is the Thompson Boxmoth (never heard about A and B)

Thank you giruXX
This is the Boxmoth B. Same aircraft as the A with some minor changes such as tandem wings.
This one can swim.
Seems only 2 were built.
forgot to mention...can also walk. Our experts call her an amphibian. Very well-known name in homebuilt country.
the nose gear just touches the border
