    You got me on this one. Is it a fighter? Racer of sorts maybe?

  2. #2677
    A racer indeed - the Letov S-8 - powered by a Napier Lion, but not quick enough to compete with the West.

  3. #2678
    Knew it was Czech, just couldn't find it. A rare one! Lefty is going for the hat trick here.

  4. #2679
    Right, we'll go for the jugular.......

  5. #2680
    Something USA I presume but there are so many that look that that...

  6. #2681
    Western European.

  7. #2682
    Some kind of DeHavilland DH60 Moth variant? Bloimey.

    More on Ferry's side of the Channel.....

    Seeing how 'my' side of the channel stretches from the north sea to china, and from the artic circle to the mediterrenean, that's not much of a clue..!

    Ferry, you're being naughty - if you look at my earlier post, it said Western European. That tends to rule out China.

    It is from a country very close to your own dear land of clogs and tulips....

    Think mussels and duvel.

    I give you no more clues !

    Okay, is this the Bulte RB-30 Sport? :isadizzy:

    Edit: The struts are off. I give up on this light racer.

  13. #2688
    Moses, I think you've got it with the Bulte......sure looks to be a 100% match to my eye.

  14. #2689
    Hmm...thats a nice photo you got DH. Better than what I was trying to match up.

    It's definitely Belgian. But beyond that I don't have a clue.

  16. #2691
    Well I had to feed that to you (along with the mussels and beer) but Moses got the Bulté BR-30. to Texas.

    "Burp"

    Here is one that doesn't have a Flemish accent-

  18. #2693
    Very much a miniature Gamma - even the tail is identical - and therefore the obvious conclusion is that it is American. But I have a sneaking feeling it ain't.......

  19. #2694
    American yes, Gamma no. :icon_twi:

  20. #2695
    Here is another photo. As is the case in here more than not, this is a one-off.

  21. #2696
    Another clue: The firm that built this was swallowed up by a large company in the post war years.

    Will reveal tomorrow if still up for grabs.

  22. #2697
    Gotcha ! Could not get Stearman out of my head - then moved a stage further along the S's and got to Stinson ! It is the Model M.

  23. #2698
    The Northrop lookalike is indeed the Stinson M of 1932.

    Fire at will-

  24. #2699
    Something chunky..
