Somehow I cannot find a picture of Albatros L 82a, the prototype which was fitted with de Havilland Gipsy engine. This description (picture difficult to find) would fit the unwritten challenge description

In an effort to move things along, CASA C-112 is (?) a two-seat trainer which is known to Wikipedia, but I cannot find anything else on it. And everybody else seems to have better things to do....![Bah](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/bah.gif)
Or maybe it wassome kind of afterthought in the 70s from the failed 102 project...

Don't know the CASA 112 but its not that! Bear in mind the age of the aircraft...its pre-CASA era.
Just to recap on clues so far:
- its not British or Polish
- it has a British engine, but its not a Gipsy
- its not a project
- its from the late 1920's.
- it was built by a major European manufacturer that still exists today
I can add that its not German or Spanish. The aircraft was also available as a seaplane. You may have also noticed something about the wing design?
It does seem quiet, but I see that Bradenav and drawbarz are online. I guess LM is actually doing some work today

The Maachi M70 it is RegDep ![Thumb](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/thumbs.gif)
I was wondering how long it would last...not being on any of the usual aircraft sites, but amazingly on Wiki. Its also listed in some detail on the Flight Archives.
