I don't have the faintest idea. Reg is on holiday, LM has been away a while and only pops from time to time to say hello, TC said he wouldn't have much time this week, RR was online this morning and I didn't see Graeme yesterday.
I too am going to work a lot this week, starting tomorrow afternoon.
I'll post a hard one so we don't have to silhouette stuff like crazy.

It seems a shame to break up such a productive twosome 
Just arrived home and off to get something to eat in a while, but I think this is a scheme from Boznia-Herzegovina, Oliver Bozic's concept for incorporating a ducted fan pusher into a conventional planform ?
I dunno if it has a name and number and not got the time to look further into it, but the sketch I found seemed to have something like "Sky Porn 7" in styalised writing on the fuselage!

Evening TC!
Mmmh... this is strange indeed...
I found the one you're talking about, and it's clearly identical to the challenge, apart from winglets (btw, I think that reads "Sky Point", it's 'sharp', not 'hard').
Found mine on a particular site with an e-mail containing the world 'oliver' so I think it's the same.
This one only had a letter and a number on the tail (which I obviously erased) and is an all-composite airframe coupled with a rotary (!) Mazda 13B powerplant, price is 40'000 USD.
http://www.mickaircraft.com/LSA/sky3.jpg <- this is yours, methinks...
Ultraltta S 1 Concept S 1
Not 100% sure it's the same aircraft, but I think I can safely (99.99%) award it to you.
SincoTC has control (unless I understood correctly that you have more pressing matters to attend to?)

Thanks HP,
It certainly looks the same, I must admit that I didn't notice that your image was lacking the winglets, but I would probably have deduced that such details are a bit fluid at the concept stage, as so much else fitted perfectly!
Looking at my image again (it was the one I found), I think you're right, it does say Point, must be my dirty mind (or screen) or summat
Well, here's something for you both to look for, and if with the paucity of players, you've been as bored as I imagine you were, then this one should be gone in the proverbial trice!! I'm off to the kitchen now, but will monitor it!

Well done sabredog; If I'd seen you were on-line I might not have posted it !! (check out WC for the un-initiated)
It is indeed the Loughead S-1 Sports Biplane
Welcome back skytrain, not quite quick enough Ken

Good morning Ken,
Glad to see you'll be around, at least for a few days!
I think your latest may be a Phillips 1-B Aeroneer ??
It'll have to an Open House please if correct, as It's extremely busy at work and I can't even guarantee a coffee time look-in, so monitoring a challenge would be impossible, sorry guys!

Guess the Menasco engine made looking for it somewhat easier!
