Not sure if its a radial or a twin powering the toothpick, and if it is a twin, it doesn't look like a VW / Citroen. Looked at the Luton Minor and the Comper Swift but the undercart is too far back unles its the angle the shot was taken.
Hmmmm, have to get the grey cells working on this one
It might be an autogyro as the wheels look very forward so I'll chuck in with the Pitcairn PA-22 ?
Its going left to right with a tractor prop, quite small undercart..allowing clearance for the toothpick....going to blow it all now by suggesting the Eastern Airways Kellet autogyro.
Yup, I know it's wrong but I keep coming back to this beauty so please ignore this attempt
You got it. I think I gave that one away for you. Jimmy Weir was the financier for Cierva autogyros in Britain and had a number built, including this one. It was, I think designed by Cierva, but built by Weir. it's a unique survivor - Weir used to travel to work by autogyro.
