I found where the company was refered to in a book, but no idea on the aircraft itself.

Some additional information: this aircraft had a vertical 4 cylinder 35HP engine which was turning in the opposite direction as compared to other standard engines of the time...

Everybody must be stumped on this one and afraid to say. : )

That's the most beautiful aircraft I've ever seen
Bugatti should use it to advertise the launch of the Veyron

Actually the 100 would make the Veyron look ugly - not a good idea.

What the heck is that plane called? i can't figure it out

Sorry, I just saw this. It's the Gonzales No. 1 Biplane

"The "Gonzales No. 1" biplane was built by twins Willy and Arthur Gonzales, with help from their brother Eddy Gonzales, during the period from 1910 to 1912. Constructed primarily of pine and small amounts of spruce, it was built in the backyard of their home at 435-16th Avenue in San Francisco. In true bicycle shop fashion, all of the wing support wires are attached with bicycle spokes and spoke adjusters. The biplane was donated by Bob Gonzales of Concord, California, having been in his family for 70 years."

More info and the engine here: Travis Air Museum

Looks like something a Comic Book Superhero would fly in the 50s.

Nice looking bird especially for the time period.

[Capt. Vick]

Is not that the Mitsubishi J8M?

I heard it was recalled over sticking throttle.

Nope, it is not the J8M.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Then it must be the Yokosuka MXY-8

 

[Njaco]

Correct!!!

 

[BombTaxi]

Am I right in thinking that is basically an Me-163 with a hinomaru painted on the side? Didn't the Germans also send Japan parts/drawings for the 262 at some point as well?
