I have to admit, this thread has been waaaaay over my head since 2009 already.
Never seen any of those planes and I thought I knew a little about aviation by now.

I am alomst nervous about Oshkosh and how much knowledge will be laid on me there.....  ::sweat::

Oh well, I guess you are right. Best to stick to personal archives. Should you have something interesting in there anyway...

IT was one hell of a hard thing I guess, since the guy who designed this one only designed one other aircraft.
So, all the hints together, with some extra ones...
- aircraft from the '30s
- only 1 built, been fitted with 2 different engines
- tandem 2-seat trainer, built for a dutch student organisation
Well, if it hasn't been found by tomorrow, I guess I should post the answer
And no, it isn't a PWS 40

OK, as promised, here's the answer:
The aircraft is the Lambach HL I PH-DSA "Prinses Juliana", designed by Hugo Lambach for the Delft Student Aeroclub in 1935.

Try this one then, should be easy...
