The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Thank you Kevin - getting warm (by our standards) so a beer is welcome !

Here's a prototype that didn't make it to production
 
Hmmm, looks like a balsa-and-tissue job. Even the engine looks like one of my early Frog types.

And there's nothing to show the scale............
 
Kevin, when I said Frog, I was talking about the well-known British manufacturer of model aircraft, engines, etc.

It was not a reference to our distinguished Gallic comrades. Perish the thought....:monkies:

Your Limey pal, Mike
 
Ah, rgr that. The good old days of model building.

As far as the floater, I think it is just too light to get a fix on.
 
A stout for Mooses :icon29:
It's a Mauboussin I wonder how did you figured out ???
It's a 34 fitted with an ABC motor...
NOt sure but it looks like a monoplace...
 
Sorry, chaps, didn't have time to look up the wee floater - brilliant detective work from Moses. Here she is in all her glory - the holder of three world records for light aircraft - she weighed all of 200kg (440lb !)

Rob, I reckon with you and I aboard, she would never have left the water - that is, if she hadn't sunk aforehand.......:mixedsmi:
