Name that Flying Machine

[chevvron]

So what part of the world is Cape Judy? Never heard of it in the UK.

[India Four Two]

Looks like an autocorrect, Chevvron. Try Cape Juby in Morocco.

[chevvron]

Definitely says 'Judy' on my machine, but I never heard of 'Juby' either.

The Latécoère 25 has a match in exhaust pipe.
But corrugated body panels seem not to match.

Think the corrugated parts are part of the radiator/oil coolers...

Tis the 26 - but 25 will do me.
Not a great deal between them and I didn't show you much of the aircraft.
Thanks India - yes,Juby. My typo - sorry chevvron.

Over to you Bear!

Thanks Noyade,
I did find the 26 first but could not match the radiators (thank you sycamore) nor the bend down exhaust.
Then I found the 25 with at least a matching exhaust on some photos.

Now this:
By definition it should be difficult to identify this one:

[Asturias56]

looks agricultural to me

[BEagle]

The aircraft was given its name because neither the designer nor his wife could decide on an appropriate name for the design!

Only 3 ever registered. Pretty decent STOL performance too!

[chevvron]

From the look of all the slots and flaps, I would call it 'Lysander'!!
(Can't call it 'Zaunkoenig' cos that was a single seater)

[Asturias56]

American? looks like a possible N -number on the tail

[Self loading bear]

Beagle knows it!
Now the rest to catch up!
Indeed American

Because it's called unknown, mystery, nameless ghost, etc?
I'd hazard a guess it's not a 2FF2R though.

[BEagle]

The reason it was difficult to identify is that its name is that used for unknown corpses etc...

John Doe

Back in 1973 I remember hearing some idiot radio DJ unwittingly reading out a prank dedication from a 'Mr John Doe' for President Nixon's 'great work in Viet Nam' before playing an anti-war protest song!

OK try this:

Beagle named the unknown
American Homebuilts John Doe
designed by Mr Nusbaum.

[sycamore]

French,or Italian...?
