Nicely done Wayne. Can't say I've ever heard of that aircraft before.

Carson, a few pages back you mentioned that you were interested in seeing/identifying flying wings. I thought of you when I found this...

Spot-on Waynos, it is the Nurtanio Nu/200 Sikumbang (bee).
Congratulations, not easy at all to guess!

Hi Graeme,
thanks for thinking about me!
It's a Mitchell product for sure either a Victory Wing or a U2 but I'll try to be more specific later...
carson1934

In my opinion it's a Michell U-2, problem with Mitchell's is that he built many models for the private market and many don't even have an official denomination but fancy names...

What about this early chopper originating from a country famous for its audacious ventures and unorthodox shapes?

That's it. Found the image on their home page. It just struck me as an interesting "grainy" shot that made it look kinda pre-war.

Nice job with the gyroplane VB and good looking "siggy."

I wasn't fallowing this thread closely, so if this had been posted before I do apologize.
Could you guess which plane this is? I will only tell you that this plane was never used operationally and only one prototype was build.

Possibly the Ikarus Orkan...

Hi Imalko,
yes, I confirm Graeme's recent post, it is definitely an Ikarus "Orkan" from Yougoslavia
