[skytrain10]

Well done...yep, its the Airplane Factory D6 Sling from South Africa. For more information go to:
Welcome - The Airplane Factory, Johannesburg, South Africa

The round the world flight was to coincide with AirVenture 2009 at Oshkosh...see RR's link for details.

Over to you Martin.

[Ridge Runner]

Thanks mate. I'd love to put one up but I don't have one ready. So, OPEN HOUSE.....

Cue LM with a Mach 3 parachute, or something like that!

[skytrain10]

Not sure anyone else is out there.....oh I see Bradenav's light is on.

I'll see what else I've got....that will be a queue for LM to jump in!

[Lightning Mate]

First time on-line since Friday.

Is there a queue?

[skytrain10]

Morning LM....a Roks Aero Ekranoplan of some description?

[skytrain10]

Try again...the Rhein Flugzeugbau X-114?

[Bradenav]

Bonjour à vous Richard.

Basically a Lippisch design.

However, it looks like skytrain was there first.

skytrain has control.

[skytrain10]

Thanks LM....thought you'd been quiet of late. Not seen Noyade on green either?

Richard....just beat you!

Depending on everyone's research into the last shrouded prop pusher offering, this may go very quickly:



Sorry its a bit small!

[Lightning Mate]

Not seen Noyade on green either

We were in contact last week and he has been having ISP problems in Oz.

I suspect that he may be in the process of changing supplier.

[Ridge Runner]

I've seen Noyade on others threads

[skytrain10]

In that case whoever gets this challenge should tempt him with an Australian aircraft!!

[Lightning Mate]

Got one of those.

[Ridge Runner]

I'm intrigued. Is that a hatch above the fuselage at the wing joint? If so, what's it for?

[Bradenav]

Re-Bonjour à tous .

Mississippi XAZ 1 Marvelette ?

Richard

[Lightning Mate]

Richard,

Please check PM.

[Ridge Runner]

That sounds like a cheer leader!!!!

[skytrain10]

Bonjour Richard

Well done, it is the XAZ-1 which was the US Army designation for the Mississippi State University MA-18B Marvelette, which is an adaption of the Anderson-Greenwood AG-14 aircraft.


Over to you Richard.

[Bradenav]
