Would this be the M-3 designed by N P Masterov? (still looks SNCAC'ish)

Edit, offline for a while now, so if correct will have to be Open House

Nope, but it is European.

Yes, it is compartively small (85 or 105hp) but not a Lycooming.

Good evening Ken.

Not too much time available this evening, but since your last one was from Yugoslavia, is this one by any chance ?
