Well done HappyPass - it is the Brumby 600 from Australia...on the basis I had never even heard of it until I posted, figured it would have lasted a bit longer - or at least until Graeme joined us!

HP has declared Open House

Staggered equal length wing biplane with cowled radial. Could be better known as a land-plane. Did they have floats on some Glosters?

G'day Ken!
G'day David?

Ken, I think he's getting back at you for watching television the other night!
Or he's passed out? Is there a "Dead Man's Lever" on a computer mouse?

I found it as the Romano R-90.

Shoot, fell victim of my own search strategies (or lack thereof). The description that I gave was almost spot on but the search a complete and total failure.

HappyPass, could you please check with your image search if yours gets the 3D of the Romano from aviastar. Mine does not, and I missed the challenge while I was looking for a 3D and did not pay attention to the photo .

You sure did mate.

Graeme has control.

Reg, standby by for the Romano 3-view.

Thanks Mate. My problem was (is) that Giggle does not find it in Aviastar's website as a picture (image). It finds the photo, though. Have experienced that in some Wiki documents, too.

It's 1920 local time in NSW - I hope Graeme comes back.

It'll be a very quiet day if he doesn't.

It looks rather quiet, even if we would "declare open house for him". Where is everybody? No Monaco today, right?

No Monaco, but are you aware it's a public holiday here?
