The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Hi Mike
Seems like the Siai-Marchetti SM-101 to me.

[lefty]

Of course, Walter, another one that didn't make it....over to you, sir....

[wout]

It is quite some time that we had a Cub-look-a-like. Hope we did not have it earlier.

[wout]

She was a one-off developed/built by students

[Moses03]

Brazil Walter?

[wout]

Affirmative Kevin
Now only need the name, the organisation that created her, the registration and the name of the test pilot`s dog.

[pomme homme]

Don't know about the first three, but the fourth one is caozinho!

[wout]

This is a better photo of the lady. Taken in 1962. I know there is at least a third photo around.

I have something in my modest Archives which is pretty similar: CNNA HL/1 built in Brazil in 1940...however I'm not sure I'll keep on searching!

Here I think I've found her: I.T.A. "Panelinha" (1963 - Brazil PP-ZTN)!
Cheers

PS I've got exactly the same pic as Wout...
The organisation is or was: Instituto Tecnologicas Aeronautica...I'm sorry but I can't be specific about the test pilot's dog...

[wout]

Hi Baragouin
That is the one. She was mainly used as a glider tug and the engine was a 145hp RR/Continental C145-2 (O-300).

May I invite you for the next challenge?

It is already a honour for me to be able to crack a Wout mystery! I expect to come up soon with something new...

BG
Well I found this one which isn't that difficult but I liked the pic!

Could this be UTB-2 from Tupolev's bureau?

A Low-powered trainer designed by P. O. Sukhoi, also called UTB (Uchyebno-Trenirovochnyi Bombardirovshchik for training bomber).

Thanks BG!

Here is my next (it looks like a mixture of other well-known aircraft).

It's gone quiet in here....

Always apprehensive when someone announces 'a nice easy one' - they rarely are !

Took a while to find the Avro Buffalo, in its final incarnation as a floatplane.

Yes Lefty Avro 572 "Buffalo" in hydro dress
and now your turn....

Thanks BG. Now, minimalism is all the rage these days - so here's an aircraft that can't get much more minimal ! Only trouble is, with me on board, it would certainly never leave the ground.........

[giruXX]

I figured out that the payload for this wee craft is 200 lbs

[lefty]

Exactly- no chance !

[Moses03]

I think Tim Conrad modeled one for FS2004 many years ago.

For the accounting department:

What a very brave pilot that was.... over to Texas, although Gx obviously knew...
