I haven't had a chance to do some homework on this one as yet but could it be from the Heinkel family?
Please, no hints, :D I'm just thinking out aloud!

I'm going to stick my neck out, and say that i don't think it's a Heinkel, but there again, i have not got a clue at the moment. Again, sticking my neck out, i don't think it's British :| It's one of those that looks like it could be American, as well as Russian, Japanese or possibly Italian. As with most of John's challenges, a tricky one :)
There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.

Hi

Started by looking at the Douglas DB-7 and then the Pe-2 but have settled for the Polish PZL P.37 Los.
