Re the "only one built": guilty as charged.

Not the Postjager. The manufacturer produced about 30 different types.

Is it a Koolhoven of some description Cringe? Sorry, I haven't got me big boy's book of aeroplanes here, and haven't time to research the exact type...

Control Yokes looks very similar to the one on the PZL P.37B Los. Could this be the PZL 44 Wicher?

Mike says "think wet".
Well my first thoughts were Convair Sea Dart but that aircraft's instrument panel was very different. Then I thought Saunders Roe SR.A/1 but control stick is not correct. How about the Beriev Be-10, pilot saqt under a fighter type canopy.

Since MReyn24050 beat me to the punch with the F11F-1 (just as well I refreshed before posting! ), here is another. Should be easy:

YAK 40 of Hemus Air Reg No LZ-DOS perhaps? However seems Con-pilot got there first.

con-pilot doesn't seem to be forthcoming with a challenge so to keep things moving I post the following. Not that it will last long.
