Hello

I'm STILL trying to ID a homebuilt aircraft which appeared in my local
newspaper here in the. The photograph is the property of Dez Wood,
who thinks that the aircraft was built in the 1930s in Yorkshire.
Please check out

info.

We know it's not a Heath Parasol or a Pietenpol Sky Scout, the
single-seat version of the Air Camper. Furthermore, we know that the
RAF Museum and the Shuttleworth Collection don't know what it is,
either. Any help would be appreciated.


Many of the aircraft of that era had a great many modifications.
I take it there is no name plate, or other type of identification, on,
in, around, or under the thing.

It still looks like a much modified Parasol to me, but I make no claim
to being knowledgeable on them, let alone an expert.

You'll have to fix the return add due to dumb virus checkers, not spam
