Was/is it American, or am I being fooled by the P47?

Many thanks mate - I have been looking (on a hunch) much further East.

Strikes me that it is from a former Warsaw Pact country.

Evening Martin (well, I see you're light's still on) ,

It looks like you and David have been struggling to keep thing moving without much company!! I've been really tied up with work, visitors and dog/house sitting. A little bit of light at the end of the tunnel now, so I'll try and do a bit more again

Your challenge is the French Dabos-Masclet JDM "Roitelet"

Dabos-Masclet JDM 'Roitelet' - Tourisme - Un sicle d'aviation franaise

Edit: Jake, you might be stumped, but it's nice to see you back again
