The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

That aeroplane's potty or faulty!

[wout]

I was not aware of this. Learning about my PC every day.
So now that all know the flying wing is a Pottier P-40, I take the liberty to post a new one

[wout]

Two-seater, all-metal fuselage, fabric wings/tail feathers. First flown 1970. May be she is in a museum now.

[wout]

This is the BD-1 Durl-E-Aire (N8866) by William Durley. She was converted from a 1946 Aeronca Chief. Engine Continental A65-8.
Registration was cancelled 15 February 2018.

Open House, please

Had a good old search for that one, Walter, with no joy!

Here's a nice amphibian -

Looks like the Falconar Teal from , Mike.

You got it, Robert. Not much on Aerofiles, but picture and info in Janes' 1970/1.

[fabulousfour]

Thanks, Mike!

I hope, you guys all are fine in these bad days.

When did we have a jet the last time?

Has it actually got off the ground yet ? I gather he has clearance ?

[wout]

I understand at least taxi trials were done.I have a (blurred) picture taken during these taxi trials.
India is indeed the country of birth of the Yadav TAC-3.

Open House, again

How about an early floater?

Bonus points for the location.

[srgalahad]

Looks a lot like the bank of the Seine near Issy les Moulineaux, Paris

[Moses03]

Not in France!

[lefty]

Well the machine looks Maurice Farman apart from the odd cockpit shape (could be the fuzzy photo) and the twin mini-floats under the rudders.

Suspect it is an American copy ?
