Sorry lads; been away. Try this.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Looks like a crash site.

 

[nuuumannn]

Flew like one, too...

 

[Airframes]

A wild guess - Pou de Ceil (don't know if that spelling is correct, but Flying Flea) ?

 

[nuuumannn]

Sorry, Terry, not a Flying Flea.

 

[Geedee]

Hang on a Mignet, thats not a Flea

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 ?

Lokks like the board game mouse trap !

Sorry Gary, not a Pitcairn, but getting warmer... (boy, you are good... )

Cheers dude.

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

 

[vikingBerserker]

I think you guys sometimes just post random pictures to drive the rest of us nuts. That looks like a scooter for disabled people.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Hahahaha

 

[nuuumannn]

Not a Kellet, Gary... think Juan de la Cierva in Britain...

 

[Geedee]

Weir W2 autogyro suspended from the roof in the Royal Museum of Scotland ?

 

[nuuumannn]

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.

 

[Airframes]

Must have been fun, watching him park!

 

[oldcrowcv63]

I think it's an Evinrude outboard motor.

That had me puzzled for quite awhile, good one matey !

Right chaps, I'll let you fight over this one for a little while..or 5 minutes !

 

[T Bolt]

Not sure why, but for some reason I'm thinking Martin B-10

 

[Geedee]

Sorry Glenn, not a Martin...and to be extrs sneaky, I've posted in monchrome !

 

[Capt. Vick]

Is it a target tow aircraft of some sort Gary?
