Really embarrassing: Air Couzinet 10. Found on the site I usually go among the first ones to start a search. Again something that came not out as expected. I'll be darned .

The stupid thing is that the same designation seems to have been used for (two?) other aircraft that really participated in the rally.

I will now go to bed, which is (ever so) embarrassing, while I don't want to stall the thread over the night. Anyhow: Open House .

Good night Graeme.

Nice call Graeme - I though peoples' first search might be for triplanes.

Graeme has requested Open House.

Good morning gentlemen!

Sorry Reg... you're always thinking too loud, so I hear you

Is that thing manned with the cockpit set at the base of the fin?
This one is unmanned, but manned versions were also envisaged, and that's where the cockpit would probably have been placed.

A tailed delta?

Looks like some what-ifs

I will continue PPRuNeing in the bathroom with water running, to hide my intentions HP

Yep, sorta...
I've found it has two ducted props, but somewhere else the word "jet" appears.

Me neither in the silhouette, but something stubby like delta wings above the L/G. So would I see it if it were not silhouetted ?
