Well done Chiglet, it is indeed the Nakajima AGM"-N Navy Type 2 Floatplane Fighter, codename "Rufe".
Developed from the Mitsubishi Zero.

Um?? I'm thinking Avro Shackleton, my only doubt is that the above silhouette seems a bit shorter in length. Maybe another version?

Yes, it is the Bristol Buckmaster. The fastest RAF trainer of WW.II. You have control.

Buckingham and Buckmaster are what one might describe as a "nice pair of Bristols"!

Open house.

I've just got in from work, so without looking it up, I think that it's a Russian Clone of the B29 [TU4?] built as a passenger a/c
