European? (ie I've no idea, but I'm willing to play the game!)

Once again you have set us quite a challenge. I am intrigued as to where you manage to find them.
You say it is European yet rule out France and Britain. You also added that it was used by two military aviators as their personal transport. I would tend to think the aircraft is Italian but the nearest I came up with was the Caproni Ca311 however the cockpit canopy is totally different. Please, am I heading in the right direction or am I too far south?

I've updated the list with the page number taken out, as people can set different numbers of posts to be displayed, thus making confusing reading. We're up to 240 now, with the latest one being 241!

Sorry for the delayed reply, I couldn't be back online sooner.
Saab Dastard is correct. Well done! The Siebel Fh-104 Hallore was flown by Adolf Galland and Ernst Udet.

Ilyushin Il-14. (though it could be a 12 I suppose) - No I'll say 14 'cos it's possibly airworthy and I think there are only 14s still flying.

Speaking personally, a couple of decades travelling the world photographing old aircraft (all of the photos I've posted are from my own efforts) and a large reference library helps support the deductive process of working out what it might be.
Post 1950 era aircraft are beyond me in most cases (certainly airliners) but I'll have a fist at most types before then, but there's been some corkers posted.
Cringe obviously is merely a genius...
I could tell you the deductive process, but then I'd have to...

Saab,
Please take a look at this thread about pic sizes and adjust. Your glasses at the next bash will be half full - or half empty - take your choice.
