All good mate, no worries. :)
Maybe the Atlas Angel C4M or Turbine Kudu? From Wiki under the Aermacchi AL-60 site... "A number of C4M Kudu aircraft are still flying privately and have proven well in the role of skydive release aircraft. They have been re-engined with turbine engines. This design is known as the Atlas Angel or Turbine Kudu.[9][10]" |

Take it away longer ron! |
Thanks Ombinda :)
But I am afraid it will have to be open house as I am off to do some much needed woodwork repairs outside shortly (and it is apparently not gonna to rain today :cool:) regards to all LR |
Try this one.
I drove past this yesterday. Apologies for the image quality https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....5ff572b68.jpeg |
Naturally I am thinking "Bellanca", fathered by an Italian American by name of Giuseppe Mario Bellanca (1886 - 1960), clue of course being the wide-chord lift struts visible. However it is entirely possible that some of his ideas could have been copied by others!

Nope.

I have only one decent book on American pioneer private aircraft.
I think it's this... https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....3f5f261553.jpg |
What do you think it is?
You look close |
Curtis Robin ?
|
Yes, Over to you.
This one is outside the Domestic Terminal, San Jose Airport, Costa Rica. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....7d9023880.jpeg |
Thank you.
Went through Bellanca, Cessna, Ryan, Stinson, finally got to Curtis. Next challenge... https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....c751654659.jpg |
Not much to work with - and it was hard to figure out what was foreground and what was background, but it was that weird angle of attack that made me think this is a wing where there normally isn't one.
I'm thinking the Boeing Vertol BV-347? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing.ertol_BV-347 https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....411910bd49.jpg |
It was deliberately cropped not to give too much away but leave a good challenge. Any rotor blades or such would have been an immediate give away.
Yes, it the Boeing BV347. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....ded95d153e.png Never quite saw the point of it, tilt wing helicopter ?? Over to you Noyade. |

. I was absolutely convinced I was seeing a small plucky VTOL machine with outrigger wheels at an airport with the tower in the distance. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....10de9fe3c3.jpg Moving on... https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....87f9fbae2f.jpg |
German? Armoured? Trench strafing? Multi-engined?
