I had the answer, but no challenge. So I thought I had better get one before I post the answer, thinking no one is going to get it....

Gentlemen, I seem to have made a bit of a mistake. I apparently deleted the original picture, and with that the identity of the challenge.
So now your guess is as good as mine.
All I remember is it's Japanese.

Do you remember the nationality or if it has flown?
