Yes, an amateur build plan. Not a Rollason, more of a single engine Cri Cri. As an option, the aircraft can be powered by an electric motor.

The Luciole MC 30 perhaps?

Thanks Bri, I will admit your clue about a single engine Cri Cri helped.

You have control.

Thank you Mel,

That's a nice model, but it looks like the maker got the tail-wheel wrong, it should have one under each boom :8

Here's the next one, almost a silhouette :)

Austin-Ball A.F.B.1 ?

SincoTC 8th Sep 2012 19:26

That's the one Terence, the Austin-Ball A.F.B.1 :D



The Austin-Ball A.F.B.1 (Austin Fighting Biplane) was a British fighter plane of World War I built by the Austin Motor Company with design input from Britain's leading fighter ace at the time, Albert Ball. Although trials with the prototype were on the whole excellent, and it could very probably have been developed into a useful operational type, the A.F.B.1 did not go into production, as both Austin's production capacity and its Hispano-Suiza engine were required for the S.E.5a.
Sabredog has control :ok:
