It really looks a lot different in different pictures: tail, windows, engine pods, tailcone, other minor details...

Sometimes it is good to be able to read Swedish, too…..

Why you...
Isn't that an Heinkel He-115?

Truly "Next", then...

This one's from Sweden too, apparently...

Yes. He.155. Not so subtle a clue, eh?

Over to you HP.

Edit: Swedish, yes. Today is my be-nice-to-all-day.

Thanks, RegDep!
That's not how I found it, however...
I google imaged "twin engine seaplane wiry" for that's what it looked like
You only have to scroll down to the 15th row of pictures...
Sometime easy really does it...

"Next!" (I think I'll time this one, since it's really easy)

BTW, which browser do you use?

And I am not going to go the forked ghosts through - I have a suitcase to pack for a trip and cannot post any challenges today…. .

which browser do you use
Being an aviation fan, I couldn't use nothing different than a browser named after a cult "aviation" (well... not really...) movie of 1982, starring the two-expressions actor...

The browser doesn't really matter however, I just do it all inside the google webpage.

BTW, have a nice trip!

Yep! Burnelli CBY-3 Loadmaster, one-off.

Edit: Noyade requested Open House.

Re your Forked Ghosts, Reg, you would have only had to browse up to page 10
