Yes, twochai It is the FMA IA-50 Gaurani II. Gaurani are a native people of central South America. You have control.

Good shot Bri - I was not able to find a photo of the Guarani cockpit anywhere.

(I knew I should have recognised that beast - there's a Guarani II on display outside the FAA museum at Buenos Aires' downtown Aeroparque airport, looking a little the worse from exposure)

OK, here's another challenge which will certainly not last long.

In an attempt to avoid being called stingey, a clue:

It had only one engine.

No, not the Wyvern, but this is getting more interesting.

Sorry, Sycamore, not a Kestrel either.

Clue #2: The CTP was known amongst his Canadian friends, at least, as a significant consumer of rye whiskey (otherwise known as 'Pure Panther's P*ss') and Sweet Caporal cigarettes, smoked through a very long cigarette holder....
