Well. I said it to HappyPass, but I am not afraid challenging you.
Just clueless, that's all.
Wossa wavy plate under the belly? Underslung lower wing (like in some Berliner-Joyces)? But why wrinkle a good wing?

I am happy to post the original photo, but that makes it an aircraft identification quizz and not a silhouette challenge.

Well, since we can't see the far part too well, my guess is that the lower vertex of the crease is just under the belly, and that the thingy has a gull-like configuration.
But on a second thought the protuberance on the right could also be nothing more than a drooping aileron, and the lower wing thingy may thus just have a marked dihedral...
Edit: seems like LM sent me that piece of information telepathically...

If anyone wants another clue, all you have to do is ask.
Found another photo - the aeroplane left aileron is down and the right one up, which is not obvious from this angle.

Now, I'm outta here at 19.15 sharp but I can upload a quick one which should be fairly easy to id.
If you don't want to take any chances it's going to be OH and I'll make up for it in the future.
Your call...

Pretty cool!
Just noticing that HappyPass has lost his boyhood during the last 48 hours! No longer "New".

With 90 minutes to go, fire one up.
However, in the interests of keeping the thread alive, clues please to help it along and declare it by the time you go if we have not identified it and OH it then.
Now it's your call.
