guessing what an old biplane could be isn't really my cup of tea...the open hatch door, the absence of (visible) portholes, the small marking on the vertical rudder infer that it might have been used for freight transportation...maybe an aircraft of Lufthansa in between wars....that's as far as i can go carson1934 | |

| Yeah, I can just make out the Lufthansa insignia on the tail. I don't know if Heinkel biplanes were employed by Lufthansa but they were big newspaper/mail transports of the period. I was thinking maybe the Heinkel He 40 (illustrated below) but the struts are wrong. There is mention of the similar but "improved" He 44 but I can't find any illustrations... ![]() ![]() (Edit; On second thoughts, not a Heinkel. Maybe not German?)

I found it! It's a Caspar C-35 "Priwall". Contrary to what Wiki states two of such aircrafts were used by Lufthansa, one in 1928 as an eight-seater and one more in 1929 as a freighter. This information was extracted from an article which appeared on the italian edition of a specialized international magazine called "Take Off". carson1934 | |

| Would appreciate some information on the tailless glider of which I'm enclosing a pic. I'd like to know where and when it was built and whether additional images are available. Thanks in advance for your co-operation carson1934 |
