Murphy Moose or Rebel?

On further inspection they have single struts, so not those either.

I should clarify that you will not find this exact aircraft on bush-planes.com, but you will find versions of it, and they all bear the same name....which is sufficient to win the challenge.

Will be offline from 1830 for a few hours.

It has more than a lot in common with the BushCaddy LM....because it is the Bush Caddy! Well done to both RR and LM.

Both messages timed at 1806, but RR's appeared first/

Its actually the BushCaddy R160.



Over to you RR.

Okay, look, RR's photo on page 499, #9974 is, I think, an Avid Flyer/Magnum. That was what I was referring to, not skytrain's BushCaddy #9966. Non-challenge photos posted on this thread are confusing me.

RR,

You like "quickies" then do you?

By the way chaps, have you noticed that the thread has just passed the 10,000 posts mark?
