Aircraft no.2 in my line up. This one should be easier but still a small challenge.

Hard to tell in that shot, but it slightly resembles a Blackburn "Blackburn".

I'f guess its a Bristol 118/120, but they would have had radial engines....

Both wrong. I can only say that your right about the country of origin.

The "K" on the tail isn't much help, either...

How about a hint - is it from one of the "normal" manufacturers, or a specialty builder?

(That tail looks awfully Hawker or Boulton-Paulish)

They are a normal well known manufacturer. It is also a fighter.

Westland F7/30.

Very good. I shall now deliver my third and final mystery aircraft.

Excellent. Well done Felix & Woody.

Unfortunately Woody told me what it was but I don't think I would have got this one.

It is very PZL. ish or Czechish, the cranked upper wings seem to imply continental influence....

A.

Nobody's mentioned it but this is an unusual design. The engine is mounted behind the pilot, driving the prop via an extension shaft - similar to the Bell Airacobra. The pilot sits in front of the engine & the upper wing leading edge which would give much better visibility compared with conventional biplanes.
