Hmmm. COIN aircraft or trainer? Looks as though it might be a tail dragger. The canopy intrigues me as it would seem that the windscreen is integral with the canopy. Date 1960s?

Correction to first clue: Approx. 100 airframes were completed.

Mel, I am not sure about the first one (Lapland surely! It is a design for a self propelled Santa Sleigh - typed in santa, sleigh and cockpit into Google!) but you are spot on with number 2. You have control...!

Merry Christmas!
