The Argentinian IA-55 counter-insurgency aircraft (project) which was passed over for the IA-58 Pucara. Wise choice.

Noyade is correct. Janes ATWAC 1964-65 listed the IA-55 as under construction, but there is no evidence the airframe was completed.

Ken's challenge
Thanks RidgeRunner. Kept thinking about Davis, but the low wing machines...almost forgot that their very first one was a high wing!

Here's a quick one...who will be first?

I'm on the road so wont be checking again until late tonight.

Back in circulation now...and I see it took all of 12 mins. Anyone know what the record is?

Ridge Runner, it is indeed the SIPA S.2510 Antilope. I guess the Turbomeca Astazou turboprop gave the game away! Well done
