Yes it is a prop. Aircraft from the same era as the XP-46. Not American...

[Noyade]

Just a stab mate, before retiring. Am I looking down the throat of the Miles M-20?

[Karlark]

No Sir, not a British aircraft.

[Karlark]

...nor is it European, Russian, Canadian or Australian.

G'day SD.

There is a thread on a WW2 forum called "What is it?" and I saw your image there not long ago. Even now I still find it hard to get my head around this, but according to the poster it's the Fiat CR.42?

[MReyn24050]

I would say you were correct Graeme.

[sabredog]

Correct,Graeme. Described as an exhaust shroud belonging to a Fiat Cr42.
You have control,Graeme.

[Noyade]

Thanks gents. Big wave from me and a big wave from him...

Yes mate. I was hoping to throw you off the scent.

Very famous and well known British aircraft.
