Thanks Mel and thanks Trevor - I was initially on a German and Jap crusade.

Evening Graeme,

Not had much time to look for this and no luck in trying to zoom/fiddle with the image to resolve some unclear details!

What are those two objects above the top wing? Just three engines? Wassat at the back, a biplane tail or a tree? 1920's American??

G'day Trevor.

Dunno mate. :(

Yep.

Should be just a reasonably but much braced conventional tail...

No mate, see above. :)

Yes mate -1923.

Thanks Mate,

Aviafrance has been on the blink since Sunday evening; it looks a bit ominous :(

I'll have to resort to a certain Russian site next, but that doesn't search by dates, that fin has a Potez look about it so I'll start there, but it will have to wait 'til lunch time now!

Yes, it's not looking good.

Yes, both photos I have used are from there.

Superb choice! :ok:

Oh well, busy afternoon, no lunch and late supper!! :ooh: Picking up the search again, I think it's an airliner, the Potez XXII ??

That's the one mate - well done, again. :ok:
Your control.
Good to see Avisfrance is back online...
Potez XXII - Potez 22 - Transport civil - Un siècle d'aviation française

Sorry Brian, it does look similar, and just as ugly.

Thanks Graeme,

Good challenge!

Here's the next one:

G'day Trevor!

The Gloucestershire Gannet?

A'rtnoon Graeme,

Oh well, that was short and sweet, it is the quite diminutive Gloucestershire Gannet Light 'Plane, well done :D

Noyade has control again :ok:

Thanks Trevor, but I'm going to make it open house - see if we can entice someone else to post.

Cheers. :)

Plenty of lookers (850 in last two days), but still no takers then!! :confused:

Well; seeing as I've got others up to monitor, I might as well see if we can keep it staggering along in poor old Heikki's memory :sad:

Finding clues to what struts are lurking in the silhouette is going to prove a challenge ;)

It's not a tripe is it?

Hi LM,

No tripe, it's all bipe :)

Might it be the Berliner-Joyce YIP-16

Hello irishair,

I'm afraid not, but you are on the right continent :)

Douglas M-2

hello irishair,

Not a Douglas and it's not from the USA!!

Note what I said last night

Aha!....:)
