Reminded me of the Katana, but it's actually a DA-40...

Open house if correct...

It is indeed the Diamond DA40 Star frontlefthamster:)

The world's ugliest aircraft - the Transavia PL-12 Airtruk?

Super Cecil 2nd Mar 2012 05:22

Didn't take long, opened up again.

Open House? Well here is the next one:-

I don't mind what it's called. A thing of beauty is a joy for ever!

G'day Mel.
I think the arrow points to an exhaust-pipe that flows over the top wing?

The Gwinn Aircar?

(Mel, did Mr India42 declare open house?)

MReyn24050 2nd Mar 2012 23:11

Graeme.
The Gwinn Aircar. That is the bird. There surely cannot be an uglier aircraft than that.

My apologies to India Four Two. I jumped the gun I am afraid when I read Super Cecil Post

Didn't take long, opened up again.
.

I owe India Four Two a post.

India Four Two 3rd Mar 2012 05:57

No worries, Mel. It's not a serious contest. Anyway, I didn't have my next challenge ready.

I knew it had to be an Airtruk, having recently seen one in the flesh, so to speak, in the Ashburton, NZ museum.

Noyade 3rd Mar 2012 06:09


No worries, Mel.
No worries all round then. :)

Let's make it open house.

Poor Noyade needs a flying house-boat. Here is the next challenge:

Metal fuselage, twin pilot operation rules out my first thought about one of the DeH stable. Has a British feeling somehow

evansb 3rd Mar 2012 18:56

Not from De Havilland, but the British part is obvious..

aerobelly 3rd Mar 2012 20:49

Taken at Brooklands? And that's a very car-type seat too, so I'll go Straight to the Miles M11.

SincoTC 3rd Mar 2012 21:28

I'm going for the old Saunders Roe sheds at Cowes and the Saunders Roe A17 Cutty Sark ??

evansb 3rd Mar 2012 23:13

SincoTC is spot on:ok:. First flight on July 4th, 1929. The amphib was powered by either inline or radial motors. A short but entertaining video, complete with period appropriate music, is available about the SARO Cutty Sark at Alliott Verdon-Roe - Official website

Your turn.

SincoTC 4th Mar 2012 01:22

Thanks Brian,

A good challenge :ok:!

Here's the next mystery cockpit.

Late thirties freighter?

SincoTC 4th Mar 2012 11:24

Afternoon HQ,


Late thirties freighter?
It was late thirties, but not a freighter!
