Sorry paulc, not a Lake Renegade / Buccaneer.
Agaricus bisporus, you may be right but I am sure whoever built it would disagree.

Well, it appears to have a single pusher engine. Instrumentation/radios appear to be American in origin. Styling appears to be 1980's. It's not the Anderson-Greenwood AW-14 or the Cessna XMC.

Was it built by a manufacturer or is it "homebuilt"?

Looks like one of those French G802 Orions?

Mel's challenge

Planegill has it. It is a Grinvalds G-801 Orion.

You have control.

Yes, well done Bri. It is the Stark AS57.

It looks like that strange looking Canadian amphibian the Creative Flight MPA Aerocat?

Correct PG Well done The Aerocat Amphibian all-composite kit-built aircraft has a choice of single or dual engines. First flight of the single engine was in 2001, the twin in 2002, and Transport Canada certified the design in 2003. Your control.

Hmm...I don't understand why no one else is posting on this thread. Is the mystery cockpit a MBB Bo.209 Monsun ?

Yes, Bri is correct as usual. The Bolkow 209 Monsun, a type certificated production aircraft. (I don't know why this one took so long.) There must be a few sitting around airfields in England. Over to you.

Eagle 150 or 150B?

If so, open house.

Yes, you are correct The Australian designed all-composite kit-built Eagle 150B. As he says, it is open house.
