Yugoslavia aircraft:
LIBIS KB-11 Branko :four seat all metal low wing aircraft,retractable
u/c and 185 hp Lyc O-435-1 engine.
Vajic V.55 :a tandem two seat light aircraft with a strut-braced high
wing, fixed tailwheel undercarriage and 85 hp Walter Minor
II engine.
Government Factory Pionir :a prone pilot experimental aircraft powered
by two 55 hp Walter Minor III inlines engines.
 
In this thread I'll post pictures and info about projects that weren't part of three major aircraft factories: Ikarus Belgrade, Utva Panchevo and SOKO Mostar. They were mostly gliders and small sport aircraft but there are a few gems nonetheless.
Fizir Fa-2 was the last project of the aircraft designer Rudolf Fizir and the further development of the prewar Fa-1 design. It was designed to meet the requirements of the Horvat Aviation Association for a small four man amphibian suitable for passenger transport along Yugoslav coast and islands. The plane was made of wood in order to allow for limited production in small facilities. The prototype was nearing completion in 1955 but was never finished and Fizir died in 1960. It would have used one Lycoming O-435 195hp engine.

Now here's a real gem. Since today is my fourth year on the forum, I'll post one extremely rare bird. B)
KBL-12 would have been the first jet aircraft designed by a Slovenian, engineer Marjan Slanovec. It would have been built in LIBIS factory (Letalski Institut "Branko Ivanus" Slovenia - Aircraft institute Branko Ivanuš). This 1954 project for an all metal aerobatic plane was the only project from the kbl series that wasn't built. Others were gliders and sport aircraft. A real shame.

Hi bigvlada,


can you post the Fizir Fa.1 in your pre-war thread?


Thanks, Maveric
 
Very interesting indeed, many thanks !
Just a question: The upper side view and split top view shows an
alternative or earlier layout ?
 
Thanks, bigvlada, the Fzir Fa.2 looks a lot like the Lake amphibians...


cheers,
Robin.

FAJ stands for Fabrika aviona i jedrilica - Aircraft and Glider Factory, Vršac (JAT pilot academy is situated there).
Napravite patku means build a duck.
Najbolje tricikl does not mean anything; najbolji tricikl means the best tricycle, they probably meant the best project with the tricycle landing gear arrangement. If you could post the whole page, I might be able to identify the models.
 
Sorry Bigvlade,I don't know this language.
 
From Aerosvet 09,


here is an aircraft project,but I don't know what was its real name ?,they wrote
PA-86 ?.

np hesham, just ask :)


This is not a real project, just a reader (who is also a model maker) submitting his drawing of how the ideal agricultural plane should look like and some basic characteristics.

Poljoprivrednik means farmer, and the 86 is probably the year of publication, similar to Moma 86.
 
Thank you Bigvlade,


and excuse me,the language.
 
Some really interesting designs here, thanks hesham.

Great find Maveric,

http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=16794.msg7475#msg7475
 
That's Utva Pelican, land and maritime version, Branislav Nikolic was the designer.
 
Maveric,


can you tell us a more info about NI.17 and NI.18 projects.
 
Hesham already posted this article a couple of years ago, I'll just add some explanations, from said article.
http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,2943.msg84497.html#msg84497
SOKO ELH (Eksperimentalni laki helikopter - Experimental Light Helicopter) was designed in order to beat the Lynx; top speed was supposed to be 410 km/h at the altitude of 4000m. They have manufactured the Gazelle helicopter under license for almost 20 years and they intended to use as much as possible of it's technology in the new design. Main rotor was to be used only in hovering or in low speed (less than 100 km/h) modes. If proven promising, they wanted to implement this design in other types of helicopters. The construction of the first prototype was scheduled for 1993 and the first flight was expected in 1994.
 
Hi,

here is a SkyPickup high-wing light transport twin boom Project.
