Unknown Wreck

Can anyone identify this airplane? I thought it was a P-36 due to the cowl flaps, but I'm not sure.

Re: Unknown Wreck

I am almost sure it is a Westland Lysander. Is there any date or location mentioned ?

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.

No, another anonymous German E-Bay find. Thanks Martin for the identification.

I would agree. Large leading edge slats still intact.

Re: Unknown Wreck

Definitely a Lysander. Another identification feature in the picture is the wheel with bomb rack to the right of picture. Characteristic of a Westland Lysander
