LM is correct. The Hungarian MBP 1 "Pajtas", (Buddy or Companion). Only a couple were built. Your control.

Thank you Brian.

I'm going home shortly but will be back soon, so here's one to consider:

The only I can think of now is Fiat 49 2.1. The strake is correct but engine looks wrong....

Edit: Plain wrong

Nice high angle-off shot 111.

The thread is all yours.

Just for once in my life I'd like to be able to identify one of these 'Cub' looking machines.

American? Funk Model B?

Looks Funking similar! LOL

Maintaining an American direction, I'll also toss a Porterfield Collegiate into the answer bucket although the tail looks wrong...

Betta go and do something useful now.

Cheers
Graeme.

Take control when you get back - you were right with the first one, Funk Model B.

Thanks Doug!

I used your technique with this one mate. Found an aircraft photo and scanned it. Printed it off and coloured it in (any colour, so long as it's black) and re-scanned it. Played with the gamma and contrast and Bob's ya Uncle! .

The good news is it's not on Mel's list.
The really good news is I can't find it illustrated on the net!

Looks good, eh!?

Evening Graeme.

If you can't find it illustrated then my guess is it's American and buried somewhere in Aerofiles!

Evening David!

I have to type v e r y c a r e f u l l y...I've drunk too much and it's very hot here...

It's German but the Soviets used it.

Andy Murray plays (Aussie Open) tonight. I'm hoping for British win!
