    One to Scotland! Surprised it lasted this long, I thought Moses would have no problems with it.

    Hmm, it's going to take a wee while to get used to this new system......

    Thanks, Ferry - I too am surprised that one got past Dallas radar......

    What about this ?Attachment 30936 - not a homebuild - production was planned.

    (Hmmm, thought I would test the post - click on pic to enlarge, then couldn't shrink it again! Got to go back in browser ????)

  6. #3006
    Help, men ! Having eventually got into the forum by a somewhat roundabout route, I click on 'Home' to be informed I do not have privileges etc etc....

    Hope this is a glitsch - how are we supposed to get in when we are already logged in ?????

  7. #3007
    The new forums are a work in progress. Please pardon our "dust" as we get it up to speed. Yes, it looks like you have to go back in your browser after clicking on a attachment. Everyone is struggling with the new look and format. Hope we didn't lose our past attachments again!

    This the Bacon Super T-6 again?

  8. #3008
    Sorry about the Bacon repeat. Over to you.

    Try logging out and deleting all your SOH cookies. When you login again it should fix a few nits.

    Next up, a vintage floater.

  10. #3010
    Looks like a lot of the previous attachments are gone for good due to the forums changeover. Nothing to do but press on.

    The floater is a prototype. One built that didn't see production.

  11. #3011
    I had a feeling that was going to happen - I suppose attachments can't last forever, we see it on other sites all the time - blank pages where pics are supposed to be. Makes all the more sense of my inclination towards a permanent database....

    Can't track down your proto - looks like Paris Salon 1913/13 ? Is it French ? Tail looks a bit Letord ?

    I'm beginning to wish I had spent my few bucks on wine women and song..........

  12. #3012
    Superb detective work. It is indeed the Paris Salon from 1913, yet the floater is not French...

  13. #3013
    Indeed, 'tis a Brit ! The Graham-White Type VIII, no less. Good find, Kevin...

  14. #3014
    Knew you would track it down!

    Over to the Fife detective-

  15. #3015
    I dread posting anything these days because there seems to be a 90% certainty I posted the same one last week........(It;s OLD AGE, you know)

    However, this Thunderbirds special may be an exception to this rule..(sorry it's a grotty pic)

    The waterrotaryfishbowl, the Model 15 Tri-Phibian by Monte-Copter?

  17. #3017
    Hello Wout ! Welcome to the New Look (Hmmmmm.) You are of course right with the Monte-Copter special. I wonder why we never saw lots of these buzzing around ??????

    flying fuselage w/o wings (years later called flying body when built by reputed and government backed airframers)

  19. #3019
    That Sir, is the Horton Wingless prototype (N87698) of 1950. Powered by a 215hp Franklin engine. The prop is in the front obscured from view in this angle.

  21. #3021
    Horton, Horten, Schmorten, you won't get a wingy thingy past our Moses ! :mixedsmi:

  22. #3022
    Well what do you know? We got 4-6 inches of snow today and it is still coming down!

    Next up, a twin from the grainy archive-

  23. #3023
    From a smallish company. They also designed a couple of mailplanes, a sportplane and several for the military.

    Note the clean lines for this vintage.

    It's the Elias ES-1. Very neat indeed.
