That's the one....Letov S-16....well done Big Bro!! Bit of a bland looking aircraft apart from the tail really but interesting history none the less.

Over to you....

Thanks. Hard work mate. It was the (presumably) swastika that was about 45 degrees that got me on the right track.

Ooooh is it the Short Knuckleduster?

Quote

The Short R.24/31 (or Short S.18 and nicknamed the Knuckleduster) was a British twin-engined, high-wing cantilever gull winged monoplane flying-boat designed and built by Short to Air Ministry specification R.24/31 for a "General Purpose Open Sea Patrol Flying Boat". The contract also specified the use of the experimental Rolls-Royce Goshawk engine.[1] The Saunders-Roe London and the Supermarine Stranraer competed successfully for this contract.

Wow, I'd got as far as flying boat, probably British, but I've even heard of this one. Well done Christof
