Ok, are we looking at the back end of a turbo prop nacelle?
|
Thank you for your perseverance,Kitbag.
This is a frontal view of one nacelle. The aircraft was powered by 2 Continental O-470-A flat 6 cylinder aircooled, 225 hp engines. Unconventional Pusher design with interesting aerodynamics. |
This blooming thing?

Correct,Kitbag. Well done.

Time to move things along then. Another view of the same aircraft:

I suggest a Spanish version of the ME-109 powered by a Merlin, the 'Buchon"?
'866 |
Morning Kitbag,
Hispano HA-1112 M1L Buchon (N109GU now at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum)?? Edit: shouldn't have stopped to check further should I, '866 :ok: |
Hi SincoTC,
Although I pipped you by a whole minute, I have nothing to offer so will gladly concede the honours if you can take up the mantle? '866 |
You're a Gentleman '866 !!
We will have to await Kitbag's confirmation though; so there is no great hurry, maybe you can cobble one together, if not I suggest you call Open House and maybe someone will pick it up, I may be able to later :) |
SincoTC,
Thank you, more of a lady actually, but you were not to know! Have something in mind but need to photograph it tomorrow, so in the meantime, on confirmation of correctness by kitbag, I have to declare...open house. '866 |
Indeed it is the Hispano HA-1112 M1L Buchon (N109GU now at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum, taken from p2 of the museum thread.

TBH all other versions of the Buchon I've seen had short exhaust stubs but hey... it was easily referenced.

but hey... it was easily referenced. Mine above is also German. (Well, the Hispano is sorta German) |
There's a chap building what looks like a painstaking replica of that one I think, been at it 7 years so far!
|
Did he give you a name mate?
|
Noyade, PM for you
