Too much of an 'inkoppertje'!


You might want to check the posts in this thread around March 24th though.....

my bad Ferry, completely missed that. Must be the age
But it remains a nice plane!

OH Please

[Moses03]

With Lefty away slogging through the Cape Town pubs, maybe I can get away with this wee traveler...

[Hurricane91]

That would be Terry O'Neil's "Pea Pod" (the first version).

[Moses03]

John knows his garden veggies. Good show.

[Hurricane91]

Thank you Moses. I thought it was a very imaginative design when I first saw it in Air Progress. It presaged
Rutan's Variviggen by several years.

Back to the old days...

PS But what's the name of post#6748?

[Hurricane91]

You are correct Baragouin, it is Felice Trojani's lovely T.18.

Over to you sir.

[Moses03]

PS But what's the name of post#6748?

From Ferry's post #6686:

"The Reyneker Re.II 'Kanarie' (Canary, want to take a guess what colour it was..?)

Some more info: It was designed and built by students of the Amsterdam technical college, under supervision of engineer F.H. Reyneker, and built at the Van Houten chcolate factory!
First flight was on June 29th (Of 1925 I pressume) with registration H-NACP. The registration was cancelled on February 28th 1929. What happened with the aircraft after that is unknown.
The engine was a 35 or 45hp Anzani, top speed was 100 kph and the empty weight was 450 kg. Wingspan was 13 meters."

[Baragouin]

You are correct Baragouin, it is Felice Trojani's lovely T.18.

Over to you sir.

I'm sure this is going to be so very easy for you gentlemen...however this is my enigma:

Cheers
Baragouin
PS Actually I asked name of post #6748 if I may insist....

[Moses03]

Sorry if my post was unclear. The aircraft you are asking about in #6748 is the Reyneker Re.II was was posted back in March by Ferry.

[Ferry_vO]

Post #6748 is the Fokker D.XIV.

[Moses03]

Apologies, I seem a little bit confused. :isadizzy:


Getting back on track, the latest mystery looks like a Comte build. Not sure though.

[Hurricane91]

I'm sure this is going to be so very easy for you gentlemen...however this is my enigma:
Baragouin.

Baragouin, I believe your enigma is a Kawanishi K-12. Built for a trans-pacific attempt.

[Baragouin]

Baragouin, I believe your enigma is a Kawanishi K-12. Built for a trans-pacific attempt.

Yes Sir:salute:
it is indeed the Kawanishi Type 12 of 1928...the epitome of how an aircraft shouldn't have been built...your turn I believe
Baragouin

[Hurricane91]

OK, an easy one...

[Moses03]

The one and only Zmaj R-1.

[Hurricane91]

Exactly!
Over to you Moses.

[Moses03]

Something a bit smaller and angular. Not a homebuilt!

[Naki]

Looks a lot like a Sorrell Hyperbipe..but thats a homebuilt.

[wout]

Hi kevin :salute:, Hi Naki :salute:
Naki, you are so close.
Aside from the Hiperbipe, the Sorrell family created (amongst others), the SNS-1 and -2 Guppy, the SNS-4 and the SNS-3 Biggy Rat single-seater (the one in Kevin`s photo).

Suggest that Naki continues with the next challenge (provided it is the SNS-3, that is)

[Moses03]

Naki was close but Walter is correct with the Biggy Rat (see the graphic on the fuselage?). Over to you.
