Hi Hans:

A bit of searching turned up this page
http://www.thelostworld.org/laahs/jimmie3.htm which says that the aircraft
was built by the All Metal Aircraft Corp and was a model G-2-W Flamingo
and named "El Rio Caroni".

This is said to be the aircraft which was used by Jimmy Angel, as he
discovered Angel Fall on the Ayuan Tepui. It is situated in front of the
Ciudad Bolivar Airport.

Any Idea who built it?
