Silhouette challenge
Is it in any way related to the Henderson Glenny Gadfly?
Damn! Missed all the action. I'm knee deep in "join the dots" attempts. Made a reasonable Russian BiCh-18, a Cessna 407 and the nose of a P-80. Final effort was "FrankenSanta." Scary.

That sounds like a quote from your better half.

It flew that late! Then it can't be a Klemm Daimler, that flew in -28 -29 
It could the Altis from 1932.

sablatnic has it. It is indeed the 'Altis'. 
You have control.
An interesting little single seater aircraft built in the Transvaal, South Africa. This machine was built in order to test out, in powered flight, a few of the ideas which the designer gained as the result of gliding and soaring. The particular features referred to, include high-aspect ratio, flexible trailing edges, rotating wing-tip control and single-spar construction.
You have control.
Thank you, Mel. You are right. It was an interesting plane.
And now to something else;

Hi sablatnic. No problem. Just deleted my post as Bradenav posted the answer before me but there was a delay in his post coming on line. The honour rests with Bradenav.
