• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Suds for Lefty.:icon29:

Agreed, there is little information out there. I thought I came across a technical journal some time ago that explained how they launched the flying boat with little or no success but can't seem to dig it up now. It was underpowered and suffered from directional stability. Something like that.
 
Ah well, another one that vanished into obscurity.

Here's something smaller and speedier..

Just a note as I looked up the Cox-Klemin it should be the CK-1 not CK-2 which was a 2 seat open cockpit biplane. They labeled it wrong in Aerofiles at least the pix was.

Chris, you are right on the Bee Line -according to Larkins this is the BR-2.:very_drunk:

As for the Cox-Klemin - sloppy of me to copy in the wrong Aerofiles designation. It is of course the CK-1.

There was apparently another Cox-Klemin amphibian (CK-18)- are there any photos of this one?

Yes, I know, Uli. That's why I wrote in Australia and not from Australia ;)

And thanks by the way. :wavey:

Here is something vintage again.

One final thought on the Waco - should this not be the 10-T (Taperwing) ? The 10-W was straight, i.e. parallel, wing like most other Wacos, and those wings are certainly not parallel !
