The Harbinger MK2

Correct RR. A homebuilt one-off glider from UK. (MK1 was built in Canada).

Over to you :ok:

RR has requested Open House.

Ridge Runner 16th Aug 2011 10:30

Thanks mate but I couldn't have got there without your clues!!! So, OPEN HOUSE

Ridge Runner 16th Aug 2011 11:02

Afternoon Martin, coffee break time. There is some resemblance to the Douglas O-46. Is it American, and is that a PW radial?

RegDep 16th Aug 2011 14:27

One more question RR: Is there an (un-silhouetted) strut in the l/g??

Ridge Runner 16th Aug 2011 14:43


Douglas O-46. Is it American, and is that a PW radial?
Hi Ken. No, not a Douglas and not a PW. Not a yank either!

Reg, Yes you are correct. Sorry!

Oh well, at least I've eliminated one country!
European, French?
Back to work now so will check in later

Half-blind stab: RWD-14

Ridge Runner 16th Aug 2011 16:21

No, Reg, sorry

RegDep 16th Aug 2011 16:24

Thought so :uhoh:

Did this go to production?

Ridge Runner 16th Aug 2011 16:28

No, it didn't.

I've got to go now :( Catch you all later

Morning...just a quick check before I start work. That tail has been nagging me...is it Czech by any chance?

Noyade 17th Aug 2011 06:47

Morning Ken.


That tail has been nagging me...
The whole plane has been nagging me mate!

I looked at Italian, no luck. Polish, no luck. Some Romanians, no luck. Russia, no luck. Of course it could be one of these countries, I just didn't find it.

Ridge Runner 17th Aug 2011 06:54

Not czech.

Are you. Going for any of those countries, Graeme?

Noyade 17th Aug 2011 06:57

Yes mate, the country it came from. :}

OK...is it Italian Martin? I initially thought Piaggio, but no luck...

skytrain10 17th Aug 2011 07:11


Not czech.
Ok...it reminded me of a radial version of the Aero A42. Work calls so its up to you Graeme to solve it :). You can do it mate :ok:

RegDep 17th Aug 2011 07:12

Hi guys. One question, although I am afraid of the answer: Biplane? Like Jona 36.

Noyade 17th Aug 2011 07:22

Hi Reg.


Biplane?
I did think of that mate at an early stage but high-wing monoplane I hope, otherwise I've wasted a lot of time.

Ridge Runner 17th Aug 2011 07:27

Not a biplane
