The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[Moses03]

Wout's reign of terror has ended. :friday:

This one is a Bunyard BAX-3.

[wout]

As always (at least often) Moses03 is correct. I will look for some more difficult ones.

[Moses03]

That Mauboussin was a rare bird!

Here is another rare one of the passenger variety-

[lefty]

American, surely - bears similarities with the Chicago-Midwestern machine I think you posted a while ago. Can't work out which motors those are, though - two fives and a ten ??? Or is it a nine ?

[Moses03]

Two fives and a nine and not from the USA. They are Gnome-Rhone engines but the airliner is not French!

Deutsh? it look's like a fokker universal, some kind of prototype... plenty room for cheese

Edam or Gouda?

From the wings shape Edam

If this is from the Moses stable, it is more likely a cheese made from bat's milk from the darkest caves of Transylvania.

[Moses03]

Not a Fokker.

The cheese thickens...

Koolhoven were used to put engines on the roof but nothing like this one. The wing shape match though...

Well I wasn't so far out with my Transylvanian special. This is a Bratu 220 from Romania.:Banane18:

[Moses03]

Bratu 220 it is.

Over to the UK-

[lefty]

Thank you, Kevin. Something a little more modern, and, before anyone says 'light aircraft' this one had purely military aspirations...

[wout]

The Fletcher FL-23 of 1950. The aircraft was a design of well-known John W.Thorp (a.o. Piper PA-28 Cherokee and many other designs).
AFAIK the design lost out to the Cessna O-1 Birddog
