I'll be darned.
I went through the correct way, all down to 'Piero Magni PM.1/PM.2 Vittoria/PM.3 Vale/PM.4 Supervale [4]' and then clicked the 'Italy Fascist', and got something that had wrong tail. So I thought, why would the '? Fascist - Other' be any different, without understanding that the ? meant civilian (no roundel)
.
Ach ja. At least I learned something today that I can forget tomorrow

Well, try to pick this one right then, Heinrich... 
That made my day, I'm still laughing! 
To be fair, the silencer is a quite recent addition, and I've seen it only on this particular airframe, as far as the photos can tell.
...and doncha Tampere with the pipes...

Well, you got it almost right. But if you call a Heinrich 'Hinu' in Teisko Airport (EFTS) or elsewhere, watch out the brother in your picture. He might think you mean something else…. The name Hinu was given to this aircraft type before urban slang PIcKed that expression into another use…..

I am not an authoritative source. But as little as I know about the subject, I would assert that Hinu comes from hinuri (hinaaja) meaning a tug. Today, the urban use of hinuri is homosexual, gay.
So just you watch out.
