I've just noticed that the fuselage looks like a planing hull.

G'day mate.

The challenge - I see no tail!!
Yeah, you're right. I had a look at the internet photo and it would probably look like this?...


German?
Something obscure from Dornier maybe?
French!

Excellent. Now if your search exceeds "35" in the Potez designations...you've gone too far!

I've looked at the Potez 35, which doesn't quite match yours.

However, that's the only medium bomber there is.

Here's another little aeroplane:

Bonsoir

This french plane is one of the M.D.G biplane of the late forties ,but which ?

Probably the LD 45 ,but I can't find any picture .
So ,maybe LD 46 or LD 26 ...

Cheers
