Identification help requested. Pleasepleaseplease!

Hello all,

Over the last few days i’ve been digging around a bit concerning the aviation history in the area where i grew up. It’s in the central part of Limburg province in the Netherlands, which might actually mean something if i explained that it’s roughly halfway former RAF Brüggen in Germany, and Kleine Brogel airbase in Belgium. While it started out mainly about what aircraft crashed here during WW2, i also came across a few other interesting tidbits – including a hilarious eyewitness report on an overflight of the Hindenburg airship by a local peasant 🙂

There were a few pics of an aircraft crashed in the area which i couldn’t do a lot with. I’ve attached the pictures (scanned from an old issue of a local history mag, which got it from a far away family shoebox) below. The aircraft should have crashed somewhere around 1930 near the Kikkerberg estate outside the village of Haelen. The woman on the left on the lower pic was the passenger aboard the aeroplane and was called Maria van Rijckevorsel from Haelen. The pilot should have been called Schölvinck, from Rotterdam. Both got out of the crash without injury, although the aeroplane was appearantly a write-off (certainly not by todays standards, nevertheless i can assure you it won’t be at Legends (tm) ).

If anyone could identify the plane, i’d be most thankful.
