No problem, mate. Remember next time if you don't think you can check back in time to say that open house is declared if you are correct. That way the thread keeps moving! Thanks, RR

Morning Martin.

Limited time this morning, but I'll keep you company for a while.

European?

Might the engine have been a 25hp Anzani?

I've found a couple of 1920s Latvian sports aeroplanes which fit, but no images.
