YOA-5 it is,

Right, thanks for that; wasn't sure if it was the YOA-5 since the colours looked a bit like the AAC Dolphin. Anyhoo. I'll post something soon; busy with a Bf 110 fin at the moment...

What does this svelte undercarriage belong to?

That nose looks distinctly French!

Winjeel ?

My first impression was a Fi156, but it appears to be the trailing edge of a wing down there in the photo and the gear is too short...

I think I'm stumped on this one...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I think Nuuumann has fallen asleep Dave. We need a hint or two.

 

[nuuumannn]

Yawwn... just woken up; sorry guys; been on a sabbatical for medical reasons. Pre WW2 European low-wing monoplane.

Sokol something or other ?

 

[tengu1979]

Cauldron CR.714 ?? It really looks like French to me.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Para-phrasing a line from the Bill Murray movie "Meatballs": "Some kind of airplane?"

 

[Geedee]

I get the impression its powered by a radial and maybe a cabin type cockpit. No reason, just a feeling is all

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I still have no clue.

Once again, sorry I'm late; we had our local school gala this weekend and my wife and I were helping out, so been a bit busy.

It's an Arado Ar 79.

If anyone else wants to post a picture, be my guest.

Good one Grant.
Duxford, early 1980's? I think that one visited my local club for a fly- in once.

 

[nuuumannn]

Hi Terry, early noughties, actually. The Deutches Technic Museum Bf 108 was also there on that day.

 

[Airframes]

Oops! Typo - it should have read early 90's.
Thanks Grant.

 

[nuuumannn]

No worries, Terry. The Arado is a lovely looking aeroplane. Watching it and the Bf 108 in flight together was a neat sight.

 

[GrauGeist]

The Ar79 and Bf108 both look like they'd be fun to fly and the Arado set a few records back in it's day, also
