Question, is it an open round or did mexchiva have the correct answer?  Also, has anyone seen or heard from James, he hasn't been around for awhile? Just curious.

[sniperton]

I'm terribly sorry about this quest which turned about to be unresolvable. Consider it as open round-
(Havent't heard about James for quite some time, but I know he flew with the Clowns at the weekend.)

[mexchiwa]

Sniperton - you should be sorry.  You know how we like our challenges to be dumbed-down around here, and hate learning about new aircraft! 

[max_thehitman]

Sorry guys, but why didn't you ask for further hints? It was a damn difficult quest.

And I congratulate you, mexchiva, your amusing little story is not that far from the truth.

Thank you for the LINKS Sniperton. There are many cool photos in there I never seen before.
New skin paint-schemes I can try on our airplanes that we already have.
Great Post!

As we have an open round … here we go

Had to be French.    A good place to look for choppers is here...

And looking at the French section I'd go with the Dorand GII (G 20) Gyroplane...

Well done Graeme !!!

Your turn 

[Graeme]

Cheers DHumphrey. 

[Graeme]

It's also French...

[SAS~Storebror]

Isn't that the plane with that gust stabilization system?
Always thought it'd have gear covers. Anyway... Rey R-1 would be my guess then ("Rey" actually is "Société des Avions François Rey" in that case).
Wiki has it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rey_R.1
