Hi

it is captioned a Fw187 but it doesn't look right to me, or was it an early prototype ?

Not a Pe-2 / 3, what it is I don't know (yet).

It is a relatively small twin engine a/c.

It could be a Czech aircraft equipped with Walter Sagitta engines. I know the Czechs had a twinboom aircraft that had this engine, but I forgot which aircraft it was.


Best regards,

Mathieu.

Hi guys,
PZL 38? Is it for sure?
The shape of the engine-cowlings looks quite different and the unidentified plane has 3 blades propellers, not 2 blades ones.
May be another version of PZL 38, with different power-egg?
