Silhouette challenge
Oui Richard. 
The Koken ki or Kokenki Built by the Tokyo Gas & Electric Industry for the world distance record flight.
Achieved 7240 miles around a triangular course, over 62 hours, in 1938.
The only FIA record ever achieved by Japan.
You have control.

Ye gods that looks familiar, isn't that a second separate cockpit? I'm thinking of something American with retractable gear from the 1930's that looks akin to the Northrop Delta/Lockheed Orion class but a long range 'trailblazer' of some sort.
Of course I could well be miles off
LM, "the S4 wing was not cantilever" I was sure it was, not being wire braced like the S.5 and S.6?
