This one looks much better as a seaplane as its land based version...

[P51vsFw190]

Thanks Mike!

I will most likely be out for the week so I will leave this one for you guys:



I will be leaving the correct answer in Mikes care as I will not be here to judge.

Happy Holidays!

This thing is Chinese, right?

[SAS~Storebror]

Not quite, no.
It's rather Bigos than Gong Bao.

Cheers!

Thanks for the hint, Mike 

It's PZL MD-12. 

There were three variants of MD-12: a prototype, passenger version MD-12P and aerial photogaraphy version MD-12F. One of each variant was built. Because of the glazed nose this must be the F variant.

[SAS~Storebror]

Spot on Shakaali.
The plane depicted is the single photogrammetric MD-12F built, shown as it's exhibited in the collection of the Polish Aviation Museum in Krakow ("Muzeum Lotnictwa Polskiego"), photographed by Tomek Spólnicki.


Your turn!

Best regards - Mike

Ok, then:

[SAS~Storebror]

Looks like a german plane with a british engine to me.


Cheers!
Mike

[Shakaali]

Yes and no.

The plane is German. Originally it had an Italian engine, but some later versions used British built engine. Not the one in picture, though.

[SAS~Storebror]

Sure?
According to my information, the plane in question originally used german (radial) engines, then in the "b" model exactly the depicted british one, and later in "d" and "f" models czech engines, albeit the latter were only license built BMW ones.
The plane I'm thinking of scored 3rd place in the "Europaflug" 1929.

Cheers!
Mike
