Time for Another Puzzler

[beaky]

Shouldn't be too hard. This is a real airplane, if an unusual one- not a flying (or non-flying) bedstead.

Block 1, F-16A.    :-/

Sorry, no idea and I'm not even going to try.


Errr.....I already did.  Nevermind.

[beaky]

You might be close... it is German...

[Woodlouse2002]

A whatsit?

[Flt.Lt.Andrew]

Looks like a Siemens-Shuckert before they dumped Shuckert and started making phones.

A.

[beaky]

Nope.

Cursed be me - I KNOW I've seen it before (well, photographs at least) but no longer remember where.

It has Klemm / ERLA lines, and I lean towards it being an ERLA..

[beaky]

An "A" for effort, so far, everybody... here's a hint: The mfr. name starts with a "D".

[JRoc]

A Dornier D1?

[beaky]

That's-
















not it.  ;D

[JRoc]

I didn't think think so.  I checked google after I guessed, it's a bit similar though.

Since this one's been sitting so long and everyone's reduced to blind guessing, I'll reveal its identity:
It's a Darmstadt D-22. I don't know much at all about it, and internet searches have yielded nothing in English, so I can't find more info.
Suffice it to say that it's old, it's odd but nice-looking, and the mfr. is not exactly a household word...

Gee - it would be a nice project for some enterp[rising designer....
