    Looks like one of those early 20's Avia BH's with a Walter engine, but I can't find one with the dorsal fridge.

    Is it a racer of some sort ? Doesn't look very military, and I imagine aiming anything would be a tad difficult......

    Yes, it was a racer, but the engine wasn't a Walter.

    OOPS - in review I meant to say the 100, not the 200.

    From a (somewhat) major manufacturer better known for their military aircraft. Engine was a 225hp Hall-Scott inline 6.

    I'm in hiding until the DHC2 reign of terror has passed.

    Felled in record time!

    I need some revenge here so I'm dipping into the stinker pile. Now featuring: a twin-boom pusher with a secondary rudder behind the cockpit...

    I think I am not going to get this one. Are you at liberty to divulge the method of propulsion? There appears to be some sort of rudimentary engine mounted amidships, but it doesn't seem to be attached to anything.....

    Apologies for the lackluster photos.

    This firm built both civil and military models into the 1930s before evolving into another company.

    100 hp Cirrus engine. Was underpowered but strangely, had good flying characteristics despite the engine and odd design.
