Vulcan American Moth

Whatever that is - no.
|
No, wrong tail.
Whatever that is It was the 60 HP Le blond 5 cylinder radial engine that interested me….. |
I have no idea which engine the challenge has.
|
So it is not Rearwin Junior, either?
|
Sadly not.

It is indeed American Ken, but it is, perhaps unusually, not in Aerofiles at all.
However, the one available photograph of it is on the web. I was reluctant to post this one, but after Regs' last one I decided I would. You know me - clues will be forthcoming soon. ;) |
Early 1930's?
|
No date available, but you must be close.
One built, which is now archived in a certain American museum. It's listed in the US aircraft registrations site. The company was founded by three people and was based at San Leandro California. |
Is it the Sierra BLW-2, from 1929?
The picture I have is identical, but it is in Aerofiles. |
I did say it would be worthy of a round of applause.
:D:D:D:D All yours. :ok: |
PS - missed it in Aerofiles. :\
Off teaching for a while. |
Thanks David. Nice one - when you said it wasn't in Aerofiles I went for my books - and found the same photo in one of them!
Here we go: http://i551.photobucket.com/albums/i...r/7c6a6568.jpg |
As you are at home, why not play this a bit different. Honestly, I don't even know where to start with this one. So what would you recommend me to do first?
I mean, I can list attributes that are pretty obvious, but what then? I have nothing printed out here. |
Let's move this one along. American, in Aerofiles. Picture is there too.
Edit...our post's crossed Reg...but looks like we both had the same idea! |
OK American, in Aerofiles. The tail fin looked a bit that way.
Engine: 9-cylinder radial, with sort of cowling. From 1923 - 1935… Problem with Aerofiles is that the data is in pages containing quite many links to pictures, and once you have a hit, all pictures form that page come out as images in Giggle Image. Is there a work-around? |
7 cyclinder radial...one aircraft built of this particular model (modified from an earlier model), appears in photo's both with and without the cowling.
1923-35 will cover it! Problem with Aerofiles is that the data is in pages containing quite many links to pictures, and once you have a hit, all pictures form that page come out as images in Giggle Image. Is there a work-around? |
Artnoon Ken.
I'll keep you company also. |
Now there are two of you, another clue....just the one built, which was modified from a very similar looking variant. Pictures of both variants are in Aerofiles.
