Hi Mike, yes it is, of course.:):)
Never understood why aerofiles.com lists it under F (Frenard) and not A (Arnoldi). I understand Frenard stood for Fred N. Arnoldi .
The aircraft was (in the 970s) advertised for sale as the Bohmer Canard.
N69966 may still survive somewhere.

You control the next leg, please

This one is not necessarily a homebuilt, but seems it was intended as flying scale for planned 4-seat version.
Known under various names and could be configured as landplane or flying boat.

Hi John,
I really appreciate your taste for the one-of-a-kind and/or homebuilts. 🙂
The Miller M-1 (N356L) by Paul K. Miller. Folding wings and 8 year in design/construction before it started buzzing in 1960.
Do you know whether the name Bee is official?

Hi waghorn41, sorry, the name is Flemming. I did not count my Ms.:o

Hi Kevin, yes if is the Revathi (the Mk.1 version). If history is right, the Mk.1 (VT-XAH) had slightly tapered wings and a largely wood/fabric construction, while the Mk.2 (VT-ECD) got constant chord metal wings, more fuel, more weight and finally metal construction tail planes.
My picture is thanks to Mike who posted it a while ago on the you-know-which forum and he must have the registration somewhere in a shoeboxfile.

Your turn please 🙂

John, thank you for the picture of the XNU-1. Did the book you got give any further info/details on this one?

As far as I know only one of this low wing aircraft was built. But I`ve seen two registrations. It was reported in Mk.1 and Mk.2 models with the Mk.2 being a modification of Mk.1 (hence 2 registrations?)

Hi John, one for the collectors!

The not-so-well known Fleming XNU-1 from the Phillipines (American Jim Flemming). Said to be a 7-seater and I understand it was actually flight-tested in the 1960s.
Do you have further details/info and a picture with the PI-X412 registration?
Thank you so much!

One of the XHR2S-1 prototytpes used to test the new rotor and also 5-blade and 6-blade main rotors. . Sorry 😮
Chris was first on the right path, but pagen01 first to mention the sikorsky.
Trust everybody is ok with pageno1 as PIC for the next one.

again a helicopter, well part of it
Showing more would disclose what it is.
But… the production aircraft of this type had a normal tail rotor and not the twin unit.

hi avion ancien,
the one and only DH-011 of René Dorand and his Société d`Études des Giravions Dorand.
Flown 1953 and employing the so called pressure jet principle with hollow rotor blades ejecting the air from the tip nozzles. Engine was a Turboméca Aspin 1 turbine/compressor

Hi Chris,
I have seen it described as the Kaman KSA-100, the Aercab and as Saver (Stowable Aircrew Vehicle Escape Rotoseat).
Indeed a way of letting the (fighter) pilot fly away from the accident/defeat.
Powered by a small Williams turbojet (did not drive the rotor)

Hi John, the A-105B indeed. Bonus points for A-105B with the different tail (as compared with the A-105A model). 🙂

Thanks FC. My mistake on the registration. Thats what happens when you try to type with 2 fingers.
Next one is a turbine heli and correct answer probably is on the forum within a few minutes.

Hi Fatcivvy, it looks like the Larson-Holmes Illusion racer (N28C, Race #56)
Very nice picture! 🙂
