Silhouette challenge

Good morning Skytrain.

Including numerous variants over 1,000 were built, and of the specific model from which it bears its name, around 300.

Bellanca M300

Pretty convoluted clues you drop .

Edit: Nice story Bellanca Viking 17-30 Story Aerospace Blog

The 300 was a rather convenient and appropriate number don't you think?
A tiny but of poetic licence though....the number was actually 297 in terms of Viking 300 production.!

RegDep....looks like its just us 2....if you have nothing to post I have another one ready?

[RegDep]

Go ahead, please!

In that case.....

'Artnoon Ken.

Since this is a retractable may I assume it is not an American LSA?

Turbocharged?

[skytrain10]

Afternoon David.

may I assume it is not an American LSA?

The American bit is right, but not classified as a LSA. Incidentally there are some LSA's with retractable u/c.

Turbocharged?

Not turbocharged.

[RegDep]

So what is it if it not American, not LSA, and thus not Swearingen SX300?

OK, granted: That's exactly what YOU are asking ME .

Well if you're insisting its not American and not the SX300 it would be rude of me to suggest you're wrong!
However as I'm sure you realise, it is indeed American and it is the Swearingen SX300 kit plane from the 1980's.



A nice looking machine....well thats my view anyway!

Your control

[Lightning Mate]

I'll go along with that.

Next page cleans a big big carpet for less than half a crown.....

Thanks Sinco. I never was good at double negatives (double or above), so I am not sure what I got right .

[Lightning Mate]

Ah well - that's me out.

[RegDep]

You can make a suitable comment, cannot you?

I'm out of that.

[skytrain10]

American mid/late1920's?

[Lightning Mate]

You can make a suitable comment, cannot you?

Yes - artistry.

[RegDep]

American mid/late1920's?

Yes. Early 1920s.

[Lightning Mate]

Can't resist.....

[skytrain10]

Mrs LM says you scrub up well!

[RegDep]

Skytrain, what kept/keeps you?

I rigged it all for you to bust 1001 and 20001 .

And don't tell you did not look at it because it has been posted. It hasn't.

Edit:

Thats the fun of putting up an aircraft from a well known manufacturer!

Edit: Over half an hour now. This is a biplane kid sister of the triplane you relatively recently shot down in two minutes.

Taking a walk in the park now with me Missus. Back in some 45 minutes.
