Sounds silly but it looks like a Mosquito fitted with radial engines and hydraulic undercarriage.

Could be the Argentinian IA-24 Calquin?

Beat me to it ea200:) Although the undercarriage doesn't look quite right, specifically the hubs:confused:

There are pictures that seem to show different hubs, but it seems to match this one:

Is that a question?

It was when I posted it. But following some more poking around looking at wheel hubs, I am happy to make it a statement!

I'll second that:p

BEagle 30th May 2023 15:18

ea200, it was indeed the Calquin!

All yours for a new challenge!!

Thanks BEagle and thanks to chevvron for setting me off on the right track.

Eucalypts in the background. :ok:
Duigan's biplane.

Eucalypts in the background.
Is this an aircraft recognition forum, or a tree recognition forum?

ea200 31st May 2023 22:47

I can confirm that Noyade is correct, it is the Duigan biplane. I cannot confirm the tree recognition but I can only identify a Eucalypt if I'm standing right next to it!

Over to you Noyade.

Noyade 1st Jun 2023 01:40

Thank you ea200. Tree species was an assumption - got a few in the backyard.
Monoplane this time...

Demoiselle?

L.J.R. Jones' aeroplane of 1911

Noyade 2nd Jun 2023 06:25

Certainly on the right track, teusje - it is an early Australian monoplane, but not from Jones.
It's a pusher prop...

Hart Racing Monoplane

Noyade 3rd Jun 2023 12:41

Indeed it is, Andy. :ok:
Over to you.

621andy 3rd Jun 2023 12:55

Woohoo!

I'm sure this'll be an easy one for you experts...
