Indeed a European on-off.
Its designers were actually German but it is not registered as German.
In fact it was never registered due to engine problems.

Googled Dutch aircraft civil 19020's and got a mention of NAVO - who I'd never heard of - but that took me (eventually ) to the site above

sorry refreshing thread is somehow difficult on my IPhone after a system update.
It is indeed the NAVO 6 or RK-220.

This was the only machine developed by Nederlandse Automobiel en Vliegtuig Onderneming.
Located in Cuijk South of Nijmegen.

It was underpowered and the engine gave problems.

I have to admit I was astonished - clearly they were decent engineers and yet they've never been mentioned before on here!!!!

Try this :-

[Noyade]

The Indonesian NU-200 Sikumbang (Bee).
Designed to be a single-seat ground-attack aircraft with a maximum speed of 160 mph at sea level.

[Asturias56]

Now I'd really expected this one to run for a week! But yes it's the NU-200

[washoutt]

What a remarkable resemblance to the Fokker S-14 Machtrainer the tail has! Same period of time also.

Tis the season for giving - I give you OPEN HOUSE.
Merry Christmas from Oz!

Isn't that the plasma tail from the six-engined 5ANT-A lifting-body orbital delivery vehicle?

What's the small prop on the right wing leading edge in post #2783

[Asturias56]

No idea - its very distinctive I agree

[washoutt]

Isn't that an electric generator? Putting it at a convenient place, but then without powered by the engine, requires a propeller, so that it can be driven by the airspeed.

Could be, I suppose. But then it wouldn't work at taxi speeds ?

Open House:
Merry Christmas from the Netherlands:

Much too small for en electric generator, it's a vacuum pump for gyro instruments. Same on the Avro 504K's (?) fwd inboard strut above.

[washoutt]

Aha, thanks.

Congratulations Mel!
AVRO 504 It is.
I will take it from you about the K - version.

Looks like Yeovilton from the barrier colour.

[Herod]

Fairey Delta 2 WG 777. If not, let someone else post the other one.

[Pypard]

Maybe not Yeovilton then...
