Warbird Information Exchange

Anyone up for a mystery plane thread? The rules are simple, anyone can post a picture of an airplane to try and stump the members of the WIX. If you're posting the pic, you have to know the answer yourself and don't post until the last mystery has been solved and confirmed (preferably confirmed by the poster of the mystery plane but if someone else provides definite evidence if its ID we can call it officially solved). Since this is a warbird forum, let's keep the planes restricted to anything built with military intent, planes that never reached production shall be allowed, concept drawings and models are kind of a grey area.

Sound like fun? I'll get it started...

Looks like it from that angle, but it isn't. Not even English.

I'll play!

Skoda Kauba V4 with all markings photoshopped out. Here it is with a registration, logos, etc.

I think I read somewhere they went into limited production but the build quality was found to be very poor.

I guess it was too easy. Yep, RCAF Bolingbroke 717 experimentally fitted with floats.
