Thanks Mel. What a rare find! Interesting lifting body design with Burnelli influences. Here is the next mystery cockpit:

Sorry, not a Fokker. It is a replica. I apologize for posting this, as it was previously posted. My photo had an incorrect caption, so it didn't show up on the list. We can continue until it is identified. Sorry again. First correct answer is officially declared a "boffin"!

First off I believe that we are looking at the cockpit of a crop-duster. Yes, no?

leader3,

Wrong continent, also this device was not very successful and less than 50 were built. 1926 era

Entered service in 29 and obsolete before entry!

Big clue - had gun positions at rear of engine nacelles, which could be reached from the fuselage because the wings were so thick.
