What aircraft is this?

[pmccarthy]

Looks constipated.

brown rhomboid/diamond wing 1932, propeller at the back.

So ugly, when it completed and rolled out, the designer was slapped silly.

I thought that designer, was silly to make such an ugly plane .

Also known as the Brown Potato Bug.

 

The wing support (middle) was also a wing, so it was a triplane.

Aerodynamically, probably not so great

I don't think the V tail solution is a roaring success.  They were based on a Military Trainer I think. They tend to "fish tail" Nev

[Litespeed]

V tail beeches were nicked named - V for vomit! If you were in the back.

I usually do but got lazy. I've posted a few photos that haven't shown thw name when you put the cursor on the photo.

 

I've added this one to the Oddball thread. It has an interesting history.

Pusher props are less efficient. Better to operate in clear air.  Nev

The Soviet Unions crazy "Zveno Project", using a "mothership" bomber to launch smaller fighters, which extended their range. Only five were built, some carrying five aircraft, and some carrying only two aircraft.

The Bleriot 125 of 1930. It's a push-pull twin, with seating for 12 pax, 6 in each fuselage. Sheer luu-x-uurry!! Wicker chairs to sit in, too, I'll wager! 😄

You got it, onetrack.
