Morning, no takers overnight so a couple of clues to start the day:
- Original design was by a civilian aero club in 1955, but did not fly until either 1958 or 1959. 5 aircraft produced.
- Walter Minor engine upgraded from the original 85hp unit to105hp.
Martin, one correction to my comment yesterday, I note that a variant of the this design was fitted with a Lycoming engine. However the external appearance of that aircraft differs quite significantly from this one.

Is this thing still on the register ?
Here's a picture of the prototype, which ended up being fitted with the bigger engine:
