Any relation to the Hansa Brandenburg W-12?...on trial in Japan?...

Looks like it. The Aichi was developed from the Heinkel 56.

Would appreciate some information on the tailless glider of which I'm enclosing a pic.
I'd like to know where and when it was built and whether additional images are available.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation

I've seen this one before -where I can't remember. Similar to the Armstrong-Whitworth AW52.... (1/2 hr later, still no find : ) )

By the way good job on the Casper and the Post Nuedorf above!

No idea on the flying wing glider but the surrounds strike me as American?

Hi Graeme,
you almost made it..it is a dutch biplane called Van Berkel WA of which 44 were produced during 1919. I think this company worked under licence from Hansa Brandenburg.

Please see my post# 2883 to Graeme which is self explanatory.
Thanks to both of you for your efforts.

Thanks very much AMCKen.
If it may help you out in your research I know that it is called "NCR Canada" but nothing more. Any additional information would be really appreciated (of course it could very well be a students' job from a technical high school)

who is clever enough to guess the name of this beautiful fighter of the thirties (this is an easy one)?

Hi AMCKen,

have you been able to dig out some information for me concerning the tailless glider? It sounds like being manufactured in Canada.
Thanks very much for your help

I believe the label should be 'NRC Canada' rather than 'NCR Canada'. I suspect the 'National Research Council' would be more likely to have built one than the 'National Cash Register' Co.

Hi AMCKen
Thanks to your amendment I was able to connect with following site through which I obtained all the information I needed:
RCAF.com : Aircraft

Another line drawing...

 

[Patoruzu]

The nose is very similar to the F6C perhaps an inprovement of it?
Still searching

 

[A4K]

Looks familiar Graeme, a Curtiss design by chance?

 

[Krabat42]

Yes, I'm thinking Curtiss too. The XP-10 maybe? The gull wing would fit but the cockpit seems to be slightly different, maybe another prototype?

F10C family but seams like a two seater

 

[Patoruzu]

Berliner-Joyce P16
Engine Curtiss V-1570
redesignated PB-1 as first entry in the "Pursuit Bi-place" category, which was assigned only twice before someone realized there was much confusion between "biplace" and "biplane"—Consolidated had the PB-2.

 

[Graeme]

Berliner-Joyce P16

Yep, that's it Patoruzu.

One more, maybe a bit more difficult...

 

[Krabat42]

Where do you get all these line drawings, Graeme? They're looking great.

[Patoruzu]

Excellent drawings Graeme
Looks like a member of the Boeing P12 family
