As you knowledgable types out there knew all along, even without the aid of my terrible puns, it’s a Tipsy Trainer; G-AFSC, here pictured at Panshanger a couple of years ago.

It’s European rather than American, it’s certainly a Trainer, and the solution is a wee bit inebriated.

(Axel – do you get the impression we’re the only two people looking at this thread ?)

Stearman is correct, Axel – if you need any tips for the cockpit picture, all I will say is that you could probably wear trainers flying this aircraft (and for those of you who know the answer, apologies for the terrible pun).

Axel
Without reference to any sources of info, I would hazard a guess that the tail boom belongs to a Merlin helicopter. The multi-bogied undercart suggests one of those big Antonov jobbies – am I heading in the right direction ?

I thought the tail boom was a Lynx and the undercarriage was an An 124

Sorry, Axel and Sideslip, my attention was diverted by a new pay-as-you-go smartphone gobbling up all my credit without me being aware of it.
It is indeed an Ercoupe – this one built by Alon in 1966 – see pic below. Alon were absorbed into Mooney the following year. I’ll have to search through my older pix to find something harder for you guys to ponder.

this take alot of thinking and a tiny bit of research for me to figure it out it was hard

Regal91 – Unless Axel-Edwards is right it doesn’t look as if anyone is going to get that one, so what is it?
