Yep, because it's a Battle.

Um, the Battle had a nose gear? Or am I seeing stuff again (I see live people)? It's got a deep dish intake......first time I've not been able to decide what it was.

Update.....Ohhhhhhhh, OK, the angle made that little door seem like it was attached to a wheel, but it's just the left main gear behind the little door. Oddball angles are a pain.

A high wing modified de Havilland Chipmunk with floats?

But whenever they talked about him, they always had a slight smile on their faces.. And that, perhaps, maybe your answer.
