The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[giruXX]

vous n'avez pas tort, Monsieur!

It's a Letord 2 and the thing in the nose is a Gaumont F120 camera.

over to Scotland

[lefty]

Thanks Uli. Here's a monowheel -

[wout]

hi Mike
Is this the Kuzakov MAK-15M?

[lefty]

That's it, Walter - a night-prowler too eh ?

[wout]

Thanks Mike. Staying up late (every now and then) helps me gettting to sleep.
Next challenge is a small twin boom pusher.

[Moses03]

I'm going with the Teledyne Ryan 410.

[wout]

hi Kevin
Only is you call it the TRA 410 (Teledyne-Ryan Aircraft)

Your turn, please

[Moses03]

Thanks Walter.

This grainy flying boat has push-pull engines in a pod above the wing except you can't see the pusher side from this angle.

[Moses03]

Two Anzani radials. First flight was in late 1928.

[Moses03]

Company made it's name from building a particular part and not so much for it's designs.

[lefty]

Ahhh ! The penny has dropped. This is the EDO Malolo Model B. It was the twin-engined thing that was foxing me, then remembered something about a barely-known twin version. Nice one. (according to one of the forums it flew in 1924?)

[Moses03]

Well done Mike, although I believe it was given the designation of EDO Gurnard.

I found this note: "Nov 1, 1928 Gurnard, first flight, F.W. Dalrymple* (pilot), B.V. Korvin-Kroukovsky (observer)", so not sure about the 1924 date.

[lefty]

I've sent you a PM, Kevin.

Here's an unusual chopper -

[giruXX]

That chopper should be the Omega SB-12 Twin (N267B c/n 156) from 1956.

[lefty]

That's the one, Uli. Must have been a noisy brute......

[giruXX]

I hope you like this and that it is new here

[wout]

Hi giruXX
I think this may be the Mudry CAP X (CAP XS?). One of a handful )(?) of aircraft completed.
My guess is purely based on the fuselage stripes pattern.

[giruXX]

Hi wout,

you are absolutely right (I took extra effort to erase the big X on the fuselage side)

An elegant design (and a true "X"-plane)

[wout]

This time a one-of biplane using the basic fuselage of a much built sport aircraft.

[wout]

A Baby Ace fuselage was used in her construction.
The aircraft was in 2016 donated to a collection in a country which alledgely offers passenger planes at "give away" prices.

[srgalahad]

I know it, I've seen it, but I can't find it. (too many old memory cells)
... and NO ONE gives away airplanes, but it may seem so to those trying to pedal 50yr old designs.

[pomme homme]

..... a country which alledgely offers passenger planes at "give away" prices.

I wonder if the collection that includes Walter's biplane is Canadian!

[wout]

Hi pommeghomme
You are on a very accurate track!
If it helps, the aircraft was mainly white with yellow accents and engine was the Continental A65

[srgalahad]

OK Walter, put me out of my misery...

[wout]

She is the MacGregor MG-65 (CF-RCZ c/n MG-1) by Wilmer MacGregor, completed in 1961.
Now in the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre.

OH Please
