Beautiful thread ! As I already have a What Cockpit challenge to monitor and in accordance with the Mods (Senior Pilot's post) #252 (permalink) I will now declare an Open House to allow some of overseas PPRuNers a chance to post a new Challenge :ok: |
While we all digest SincoTC's well reasoned post, I'll put something up for consideration, since it's been over 24 hours AND I'm in UTC-7. ;)

That's the one. Not only the prototype, but the only one built. I thought by trimming the Renault 4CV out of the picture, it might have lasted longer!
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....6da118a137.jpg An interesting aircraft that was designed to carry the SS.10 anti-tank missile, but proved unsatisfactory during trials. Wire-guided missiles launched from a fixed-wing aircraft. What could possibly go wrong? It was subsequently used in ground attack operations in Algeria. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potez_75 https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....57f57c0bc9.jpg Quemerford has control. |

I did post one to say correct: over to you but it seems to have fallen off.

Not sure what happened. However here is the next one:-

Quemerford has it! The one and only model of the Frabjous Corporation's BiSkiLi! Having lost power on her maiden flight, she alighted with some force into a clothes basket from which she was retrieved and hung out to dry. (Just kidding....)

Is this a pusher canard ?

Looks like a nasty accident between a Skyvan, a clothes line and a bicycle..

I myself am more interested in the stories behind the airfields, aircraft, especially if someone has visited or flown it themselves |

This aircraft was a glider powered by a motorcycle engine. In 1921 it took part in a competition but did not win anything. |
It sure would have been a winning contestant in the Caption competition! But in grace it loses from the Rohnbuzzard. I will leave the kill for Quemerford as I found his caption the best. |
No go ahead - I'm at a loss...
|
1921 glider competition 2nd result Budig glider which took part in the famous German Rohn glider competition. I found that it was only in 1923 that it was fitted with the motorcycle engine. OH when found to be correct I hope Quemerford will fill the gap? |
