Aircraft Identification V

Right on both items Tzaw! and congratulations on the Salmson Phrygane which wasn't easy at all and with so many look-alikes...just for the sake of nitpicking the Vultee Vanguard should be V/61 (so it is on aerofiles)
Cheers

Thanks Tzaw, yet I have in my files two pages with pics of the Bristol Brigand and couldn't recognize it. I must be getting really old!

Hard to tell, can't see the front.....

Not easy.
Sixth (and last) prototype of Parnall N.2A Panther.

Tz, that was impressive!

Ok a new one:

Not too difficult, but I do find it interesting.

G'day TW. Found a John Batchelor painting which shows well the Panther's front hydrovane (to prevent overturning during ditching) and impressive looking flotation bags.

Hi VB. A torpedo equipped Douglas World Cruiser?

Yes, Graeme, I had the same thought
But that strange fin flash on rudder puzzled me: can't be US...

Fortunately, Mr. Putnam came and save me

BTW, I didn't know much about Douglas World Cruisers, very fascinating story:
Douglas World Cruiser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nice choice, VB

Well you can't argue with Mr Putnam!

The DT-2B. Was it based on the DT-2? If so, they certainly trimmed the fat off it!

Ditto!

vikingBerserker · Sep 21, 2009

Nicely done!

Graeme,
You are right, the look of that "supposed" DT-2B was quite different from standard DT-2
And it matches perfectly with DWC profile...
Is Putnam wrong?
Might that be a retouched photo?
It's a mystery to me...

Cheers

carson1934 · Sep 22, 2009

Good afternoon gentlemen,
this is a rather non descript biplane. Her name please?
BTW your discussion between the DT2 and DT2B is surely interesting, from the evidence you have submitted they surely look like two difference A/c's....

Marcogrifo · Sep 23, 2009

Sorry carson, I have no idea what your bipe was

So, having found this little nice floatplane I couldn't resist to submit it to your attention

Cheers

I too. Keine Ahnung
After extensive search I found very similar WACOs: BSO, JWM.
Is it WACO?

And Frank Rezich collection might give us an hint about this machine (if only I was able to figure out which... )
A Boeing?
A Stearman?

Hi Marcogrifo,
mystery plane of my post #3755 is a Laird LC1B obviously you'll find more information on aerofiles.

I'm looking now for your nice little floatplane which I suspect is french. Maybe a Besson?
carson

bugger (how our australian friends would say) it isn't a Besson and at this stage I'm not even sure it is french
