You are right, Graeme.
These small German civilian/aerobatic/communication/training aircraft from the thirties are so pretty

Over to you

I thought I was seeing a nose wheel - but an optical illusion?

Arado Ar-79?

No nosewheel.
When I get back to my computer I will post the original picture

Cheers LameHawk. I deleted my original reply cause of the 'nose wheel' - but then had a closer look at your photo.

Open House for the moment....

Now it looks as if I accepted your answer before it arrived

Not a HP Hermes, in case anyone was thinking that

Only one built.
First flight was in 1958.

Tend to think it is an Italian: Agusta-Zappata AZ.8

It looks like if a DH Comet got drunk at a party and spent the night with a Douglas.
