Fascinating challenge mate!

So the wing and end-plates are at the back of the "fuselage?"

An imagination to end them all!

Bet Mrs. Noyade is a very happy woman.

Hey, your 3-D now has wheels?!
This is because of the limitations of the stuff on the web.

I know the feeling!

BTW, both silhouettes come from images on the web.

It can be found in Aerofiles, but no images.

To be honest I thought it might have been some sort of Yokosuka prop-driven version of the Baka then I imagined a sort of V-1 fuselage...

Then I saw your 3-D.....

Absolutely no idea mate.

BTW mate, a "hanger" is what you find in your wardrobe.

Aeroplanes are kept in hangars.
