Ah ah...I have a Cub look-a-like lined up for a future challenge! Are we looking at a modern day machine...European design?

Modern day.. not European ....

;)

Is the aircraft in "standard" config? I say that as the exhaust location is quite distinctive and was just wondering if that's how it was/is built or is it an "add-on"? Don't want to waste my time looking at Neiva's, Aero Boero etc!:)

Original, Ken.

I suggest you don't :)

RR

Ok thanks, so if not European, then logically from the US? Or perhaps South America?

Not american, Ken!

Edit: I'm out for a Xmas do tonight so won't get on SC.. would you like clues or can it wait until tomorrow if its not solved by 1730?

Give us another clue before going! I'm busy this evening too so won't have much opportunity to look in. If you're ok if I (or someone else) identifies it and its supported by someone else, are you happy for us to move on?

Not European or American...that limits things a litte...Russian? Is it in production now, or a kit plane?

yes, no problem.

One clue: a slight russian connection - but also chinese! But not from either. One produced so far, I think.

SAFAT 01 from Sudan I believe.

ah ha.... that's the one mate!!!!! You have control!

I must go, mate!! Night, night...... RR

Thanks Martin. In fact we've had the SAFAT 01 before...I thought it sounded familiar!

Next one....European origin

Evening Ken. :)

French mate?

Morning Graeme...yes French...1950's.

I'm wrong, the tail looked familiar, but that's about all.

Are you sure that it is not the Max Plan PF.204?

G'day Karlark. Mine is. :) But Ken's front looks very different?

Just googled. It is. Monologued again! :(

I was wondering whether the different nose would puzzle you....yes of course it is the PF-204....in a different form! :)

Your control Karl:ok:

Then again, the tailheel looks a little suspect...:)

I think Noyade new what it was, so if credit is due, it should be his.

Edit... or open house.

Cheers Ken
