The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

[Moses03]

Keystone K-55 Pronto is the mystery floater.

How about this nifty tourer?

[Naki]

Looks a bit like a Culver Dart

[Moses03]

You are on the right trail that has many forks...

[flyingbrian]

Culver Dart GC?

-Brian

[srgalahad]

that cowl seems 'off' for the Continental [LINESTRIKE]O-100[/LINESTRIKE] O-200 GC but one of the forks in that trail leads me to wonder about the obscure Mooney M-6 with a Continental A-37

[Moses03]

Not a Mooney Rob.

It is powered by a Continental A-100. Okay, this is a Dart variant but was built by another company. That is the name I am looking for.

[srgalahad]

well, then it's NC21685

an Applegate-Weyant Dart GC

[LINESTRIKE]and OH for you all[/LINESTRIKE]

[Moses03]

That is the one.


Rob, did you declare open house or change your mind?

[srgalahad]

I had nothing to post, but then I found this...

Should be simple enough but we've been tricked before -

[Naki]

Hmm - looking a bit like a radial engined Bellanca Crusiair

[srgalahad]

a bit like...

and yes, it's a radial engine

[flyingbrian]

I belive it is the Bellanca Junior 14-9 NC19195.

-Brian

[srgalahad]

Bada Boom Bada Bing!

you're up Brian

[flyingbrian]

Here is an interesting military plane...

-Brian

[srgalahad]

hard to identify the individual aircraft, but likely is:

Dornier 335A-12, No. 112,

"--was transferred to the RAF, departing Neubiberg on 7 September 1945 with a Squadron Leader McCarthy ferrying the aircraft to Britain. It met its end on 18 January 1946 when a fire developed in the rear engine, which destroyed the elevator controls. Group Captain Alan Hards was killed in the ensuing crash."
