Oh and extra brownie points for nominating the pilot ... not me ... but I have acted as ground crew and ballast for him in a balloon or two ...

Praga E114 from Chech Republic.

 

Get's cold there in winter, so PIC needs knees close to engine to keep warm, as he can't afford thermal underwear?

Pair of Cohen Condor's or Stolaero's..? not sure, can't remember the wingtip configuration

I'll give you that - they are both Condors - and I can't recall the difference between the two ... but I know that these two are condors flying out of the St Mary's strip

Nearest I could find was the Mustang. The photo I had of the Condor had the engine mounted behind the pilot with a pusher prop, and did not have the ailerons.

Mustang had square wing tips

I think the Stolaero came first, then the Condor.

 

A couple of fellows I knew at Raymond Terrace/Medowie had one of each back in the early 80's. They were fairly similar.

You will probably get this one fairly quickly.

Well the two in flight are condors - see below ;-)

This one should test you ...[ATTACH=full]36365[/ATTACH]

Whatever it is it's bloody neat. Any more info on it..........did it fly for instance?

Looks like 1970s clothing. Looks like England or Europe in winter. Doesnt look as if it would fly, maybe a ground trainer. Or a brave experiment.

Well yes I'll give you the 1970's ... but even then it was a copy/replica based on a 1920's original.

 

I'll let it run till Wednesday before I post a pic of the original - then all you technically capable ones can internet search the pic to find it ;-)
