Doesn't look terribly Romanian - they generally have more style -, Yugoslavia wasn't inthe Pact IIRC - so maybe Czecho-slovak?

Yes indeed...…..

Reminds me of a Praga.

Keep going.....

'tis the Beneš-Mráz Be-60 Bestiola - you're right Mreyn seems to have known what it was!!


The Beneš-Mráz Be-60 Bestiola was a Czechoslovakian light aircraft produced in the 1930s. The highwing monoplane had two side-by-side seats in an enclosed cabin, braced wings, and a fixed undercarriage. It was first flown in 1935, undergoing testing quickly. Twenty of these aircraft were then sent out to Czechoslovakian flying clubs from April to November 1936.

Yeah well - working from home - but a conference call with a client this pm "to discuss the situation" :(

Not expecting them to shovel more work into the hopper.........

Try this - it came in a lot of slightly different editions I think (even apparently as a biplane!!)

Ah well - I have more time on my hands gentlemen & ladies - "we're not doing anything and we're not making any money so we're putting everything on hold right now..." ah well - they've been a good client over the years - they may survive........

Sorry about the rather coarse blotting out of the reg. - but I don't have photoshop

A connection with the Bowers Fly Baby perhaps?

It is a Flybaby - supposedly a 1A but they came in so many flavours depending on the individual constructor . I was amazed to read they sold several thousand kits and at least 380 were built - one as a biplane!!!

Mreyn in command

Quiet an interesting aircraft. What was the registration? I could not find one with that configuration fin and rudder. Good website here. The Fly Baby Home Page several biplanes among them.

Try this one:-

Avia BH-12?

The Fly Baby was N319L - I understand people changed the wing-tips, the tail, the wheels...................

Asturias,

Photoshop Elements has the clone tool. I have seen it online for about 30 Euros.

I believe it is French.
