Hi Thomas!
I have sent you a PM on the Kensgailis VK-8.

Your next round is the Toyota (USA) TAA-1.

This one was intended as ag-plane and as sport aircraft. Only a single example was built.

Hi A.A.
the unique roadable Lebouder 2-seat Autoplane (F-PTES) by Mr. Robert Lebouder. He used a small Vespa 400 car and the Vespa`s wheels could be removed with the front ones then being used on the aircraft `s undercarriage. Transformation was claimed to take some 30-35 minutes. The engine in the nose was a 100hp Continental O-200-A

Thank you Dan, had not seen this picture of the 222 before. :):)
This one is also 4-seat, but flew several years later than the SIAT 222

The SIAT 222 (Siebel Flugzeugwerke ATG) from W. Germany, also seen named as Super Hummel.

Flown (and sadly crashed) in 1961. Was reported to be fully aerobatic when flown as single-seater
Nice picture, mind to share it with registration visible?? :):)

SIAT`s next number was more successful

Hi Canuck!
I think you are right on the Cessna/Robertson (Wren 460 etc.) connection. I think the gentleman`s name was James L. Robertson and that he was involved in several companies/projects.
Please see Aerofiles.com (Roberston, Skycraft, Wren etc.)

that is the one, Wilkofife!!
I understand the trigear was also registered N2903B and that it was built using “parts and components” of the Skylark. If you own the identification plate, you can built an aircraft around it. 🙂

Help wanted!!

if N2903B is still on the register, can it be that it is the Skycraft Skyshark and not the SRX-1 Skylark. I understand that the Skylark was around 1960/1961 modified with tri-gear, more span, new tail and more horse (Lyc. IO-720) by Skycraft Inc (founded by James Robertson and later becoming Wren Aircraft), retaining the same N2903B registration.

I know, I know… a fool can ask more questions than forum members can answer, but I try anyway :):):)

Hi John, the SECAT S-5 (as F-PIIC) it is:):)
The photo is from the R.A.Scholefield collection. The same aircraft initially was F-WCDS.
The second aircraft was F-WBBT and known as the Gaucher RG-75T after the designer (Rémy Gaucher).

A.A. you are right that Aviafrance has gaps (for example try to find the 1947/1948 SETCA Milan), but I would not spent a fortune on Janes because they have the same problem (a lot of gaps, especially on homebuilts worldwide). Open a bottle of good wine instead.

John Aeroclub deservedly won his change for the next challenge (and maybe cause some of us another headache)

Dear AA, you are correct that it is post-war, but no relationship to the Aubert Cigale. You are also correct that the first registration was F-W… (maybe later F-B…) and the second was F-P….
A second very similar example had an entirely different designation which included the name of the designer.
So now you have the whole story, all you need to do is to give is the correct answer:):)
