For some inexplicable reason another old joke came to mind:

I don't suffer from persecution mania.
It's only something they all say because they are out to get me

I‘m going to put aside my fears of renewed joking for a moment and present you guys with something SIMPLE so that there is no possible way to extend hilarity at my expense past the three page mark like last time.
 
So try this:

Cheer up - we do love you  :-*

Can't say these early types are a speciality.
Looks like a very early canard type...
French maybe

Appears to be some sort of experimental Voisin Canard,
but the corrugation on the wing surface has me stumped.
Had to take a close look at first
to make sure it wasn't a Bleriot with the pilot facing backward for laughs.
Good one.. :)

For the shape of the corrugated sheet wings, similar to the roofs of a warehouse, a civil engineer had something to do with it. :o

I bet a roasted duck for that! ;)

Lame,

That is incorrect. Guess again please.

Hold on. Lame, you are technically correct. I was always taught that this was the furst Hugo Junkers design which is what threw me off of you guess. My bad.

Your turn.

What loco so precisely pointed out.

This is where I might have suggested a couple of duck dishes - like Grumman or Fw. But no.

 "and now for something completely different"

What's this poor thing:

All 3 of these would be a challenge.  Potez 63 on the left?  Looks like a prewar French DH Drover (if there was such a thing...)
