J-TAUV Oguri 3 two seat tractor biplane (engine listed as "No 18"). CofA 10.21, expired 6.22. Tsunetaro Oguri. (This aircraft actually seems to be the Oguri 2 open-cockpit biplane trainer with Hispano-Suiza 180hp because he obtained his additional licence to fly the Oguri 2 type, with Hispano-Suiza 180hp, on 11.21. Only one example built.)

Регистрационный номер: J-TAUV The Oguri No. 2 Trainer was designed by Tsunetaro Oguri who learned to fly in the United States and adopted the black cat symbol worn by his aircraft from examples he had seen there. His first aircraft was built from imported parts of a Curtiss Jenny but his second aircraft (and only other known design) had a shorter wing and a more powerful 180 hp imported Hispano-Suiza engine.
The register entry for J-TAUV below surely refers to this aircraft since the dates and pilot's licence validation are in agreement and the No.2 Trainer is known to have been entered in competition in 11.21.
