Thankfully too disturbingly ugly to publish!

Pypard is correct - the Lancashire Prospector - and it was cropped as otherwise it would have lasted an even shorter time than it did

Will post one in a bit.

Try this then:

think its a Macchi of some sort - but which one?

Not a Macchi.
Six of these machines served with the US Coast Guard.

I think someone is on the trail... :)

Thank you Noyade, It's a black and white image, but is it lurid green in reality?

I don't think so...

The Viking OO-1, which is a licence built version of the French FBA type 17.

Correct: I was surprised that this type dates from 1931! I would assume it to be more of a post-WW1 type, but not by more than a decade. Over to you :)

Thank you, Pypard. I have to say Noyade did most of the heavy lifting on this one.
His clue made it lot easier.
On with the next one.

Something biblical?

I guess you could say that.

Well, the goat misled me as to the appropriate continent, but now I have Good News about the aircraft.

Also, I discover the type has a website dedicated to its history, and the website itself is now a historical artifact. Remember 1992 when putting up a web page was colourful fun?

Might be a S American design?

Made in the US of A.

I was surprised to see that approximately 50% of the production run still survive; one in a museum.

Designed for the same role this amazing guy does? Missionary Bush Pilot
Not that I approve 100% of the influence of missionaries, but there is a lot more than bible-bashing going on here...
