A few months ago I friend of my took me on a flight with his Cessna.
On the Ilse of Texes, The Netherlands we were suprised by this flying beauty.
Stunning!
This plane is fully restored and converted to a two-seater.
Sound was excellent during a fly-by!
Cheers,
Andy

Gentlemen,
Who knows what plane this is?
The picture comes from my deceased grandparent who were on a flight with this beauty.
Before the flight the picture was taken. Believed it dates from around 1936.
My grandmother (wearing a white hat) is right below of the "M" of KLM on the fuselage and left from her is my grandfather.
I would appreciate if there is someone who could possibly identify the type of airplane.
Cheers,
Andy
Thanks Talbot!

My Grandfather has two planes from the 1940's I'll get pictures next time I see him.
Always in need of assistance!
Can't wait to see 'em.
/|\ is the Broad Arrow mark used on British military gear.
they're beauties, one's a Stinson Voyager (1940's) and the other is a Piper Cub Super Cruiser I think (1947)
Always in need of assistance!
Wow, what great planes! They only fuel my dreams of becoming a pilot!
I love old aircraft. There is an air museum local to me and I just sit out there for hours staring at the lines of the old war birds. Simply beautiful. Sadly, the closest I can get to wrenching on old aircraft is my 61 vw. (aircooled engine.)
Looking forward to pics. Your grandfather has great taste in aircraft.
