Perhaps a clue for us thickies?

Designed 1958
First Flew 1964
One built - amateur
VW power

Mmm, well at least there is a bit more to see in this picture than most! I'm assuming a twin Martin, which leaves the choice a little limited in terms of amateur build machines. European?

Looks like a wooden box collided with the nacelle at right angles (left side of the photo)?

Sorry for the late response, Ken, but I've had to deal with an incident here this morning!!!!

European? well, its is regarded by some as Europe I guess!

edit: yes, a twin, mate

Yes Graeme! Good to see you!

So are we talking Russia or perhaps a former USSR state then?

Nope, Ken!!!!

First flight 24/6/1964. Entombed in a museum in 1978.

Usual rules apply as it is the weekend soon! :)

Time is running out and i probably won't be on at the weekend as the interweb isn't up and running yet :E

Last clues: go north of Germany and south of Sweden! Built by a farmer!

Usual rules apply - two confirmed IDs and you move on!!!!

Have a good one!!!!

No takers. You are looking under the nose and belly of a Spitfire.

G'day Brian.
Well, how embarrassing is that?! I was looking at British, but concentrated on Miles aircraft. :(

Cheers.
