Name that Flying Machine
looks horrible!!
I wonder if it's been cropped and in fact it's some sort of research ?glider? under the wing of something a lot bigger?
Piston or jet?
ah-ha - so possibly a turbo-prop...........................
almost the front end of an A-26 Invader - but not quite...............
Judging by the tow bar, the nose wheel must be a long way from the nose. Is this an aircraft that has had an experimental cockpit grafted onto the front?
While thinking about my previous post and the possible scale of the aircraft that nose was attached to, some of my "little grey cells" whispered Convair.
Bingo!

Sitting behind all that perspex, I would have been a bit worried about birdstrikes.

Thanks oxenos.
Is that a Griffon engine on maybe a Shackleton?
No and no.
A Griffon is not that ugly.
