I suspect some will recognise this quite quickly.

No idea really. First thought was the very finny end of the XF-85. But no. Then I tried to work out the fin shape...

I can't figure out some of the detail at the bottom and at left of the photo. Now I'm thinking that the exhaust is not directly under the fin?
Just had a look at What Cockpit. Anything to do with the YB-49?

G'day Trevor. 
Got a few hours to kill before work. What am I looking at mate? Very small jet intake, airscoop, piston exhaust or none of the above?
Presently 24 deg.C at 0830hrs and looking at a top of 38 deg.C later today.
(Mate, just had a look at AviaQuiz - no challenge?)

G'day Graeme; survived the first day eh, or are you in one of those high buildings in your prediction?
It's a smallish airscoop.
Quite mild here, 10 C, colder tomorrow max 8 C, then milder and wet for the week!
Yes, it looks like AQ's starting afresh, dunno if they scrubbed the last one though, or when the new one's going to start!
