    Just for fun
    If that's the Foo Fighter than this must be his father. Although looks like he didn't get off the ground.

    Hi Wout!
    Just for the fun of it: is that the Albessard "Triavion" of 1926?

    Hi Mr. Green
    One of the few. Durand Mk.V`s that is. Negative stagger biplane homebuilt design from USA, late-1970s.

    That, I believe, is the Cusin Esperanza 4.

    Hi pomme homme
    You can switch from the "I believe" to the "I am sure" mode! The Esperanze 4 it is.
    However, should we call it the Cusin Esperanze or the Espérance Esperanze, after the designer, Canadian Michel l`Espérance.
    Albeit no examples were built in the country of origin and F-PBSC remains unique.

    You are cordially invited for the next challenge

  16. #12566
    Thank you, Walter. I have to confess that it was a rare thing for me - an easy identification. But that's only because F-PBSC is based just up the road from me at Thouars!

    And here's the next challenge .....

    An aeroplane which is light by name and light by nature!

    Hmmm...Doesn't show up with a simple google using 'legere' or 'lumiere', assuming it French of course PH!

    But the designer is to be found not too far away from you, Keith. Down south, just off the D137!

  20. #12570
    I suspect this Gallic flivver is the Leger ULM Pataplume 2.

    Hmmm...About an hours drive to Jonzac. Thinks must try to find out how the self build is going at St Jean d'Angely that I saw a couple of years ago.

    Your suspicion is not misplaced, lefty. This is indeed a Léger Pataplume 2. In fact, number two - 17-SG. So take it away, sir.

  23. #12573
    I hesitate to prolong this run of diddy one-offs but, for the moment, this one will have to do -

    There's a lot of similar ones on Google, but not that one so far!!!
    Looks as if the fuselage tapers in very quickly aft of the seats....could cause flow break up & turbulence onto the prop.....

    Not being an aerodynamicist, Keith, I can't comment - but it did fly ! Hirth motor. Western European. Can't believe this one has escaped Wout's clutches.....
