The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Looks like one of those early 20's Avia BH's with a Walter engine, but I can't find one with the dorsal fridge.

Is it a racer of some sort ? Doesn't look very military, and I imagine aiming anything would be a tad difficult......
 
LOL Moses......you know I say the same thing to myself when searching for some of the lovelies you dig up. This one is the Kawanishi K-2. The floor is open. :mixedsmi:
 
Fair cop there - never even thought of an Oriental....

Here's a big ugly flying boat..(or in my local patois a muckle floater...)
 
Felled in record time! :icon29:

I need some revenge here so I'm dipping into the stinker pile. Now featuring: a twin-boom pusher with a secondary rudder behind the cockpit...
 
I think I am not going to get this one. Are you at liberty to divulge the method of propulsion? There appears to be some sort of rudimentary engine mounted amidships, but it doesn't seem to be attached to anything.....
 
Apologies for the lackluster photos.

This firm built both civil and military models into the 1930s before evolving into another company.
 
100 hp Cirrus engine. Was underpowered but strangely, had good flying characteristics despite the engine and odd design.
 
More fun.. This is a Polikarpov R5/P5 with Kasseta for carrying extremely hardy troops.

Not quite sure how the stewardess was supposed to get round with the tray of vodkas.....
 
Don't have anything ready. Looks like the Moses Vaults are brimming with goodies so please continue....
