Crude Chinese wooden knockoff of a Russian bomber, Chengdu Yanhun III of 1944.

Pretty sure about Lefty's wooden horse so I am going to move on as I will be out of pocket on and off tomorrow.
Here is a beast of a floater:
Please press on if you know it!
Kevin was of course correct with the Chinese bomber
I'll pass on his lovely floater - got a very busy day ahead - preparations for tomorrow !
If I don't have time later, may I just wish you all a very happy Christmas from Scotland - no snow, I'm afraid, but just chilly enough to justify the odd drop of 'central heating' . Cheers !
Hi Kevin
I think your floater is the Martin M-270. Built/used to test various hull configurations, specially that of the P6M Seamaster.
Modified from the XP5M-1 Marlin prototype.
Hy boys and girls!
This seems to be a "anno horribiis" for my health…. I had to go into hospital Tuesday this week and came bck (temporarily)home today….however January 1st I'll have to return for further treatment…. now I'm feeling so and so but never mind…"ad majora"!
Carlo
Carlo, I wish you a happy but, more importantly, a healthy new year.
Mike
Merry Christmas!
Everyone stay safe and well, especially Carlo.
Take it away Walter.🍺
Carlo, best wishes for the upcoming hospital visit. Remember, we all want to enjoy your contributions for a long time to come!
next challenge is a twin floater with wheels that better be tugged in when trying out the liquid substance.
Merry Christmas to you all and especially to you, Carlo.
Hope that you will recover from your illness soon!
I think Walter's mystery is the Orion SK-12
Hi fabulousfour
That is the one.
Your turn, please
Thanks, Walter.
Let's try this nice little high-winger.
It is the Cessna FC-1.
Over to Chris
It's in Aerofiles but no pix of it. The company has a strange name. Built Military and Civilian.
Chris
clue search "strange name" on forum
Chris
I said Aerofiles didn't have a pix of it. Looks like PT. Reveal in a couple of hours.
Chris
Looks very much like a PT. So it's the PU...
The only other photo I could find with the "training wheel" up front was this one labeled the "A".
I had it as the Orenco A over to you.
Chris
This one came about a decade later than the Orenco.
The photo is a little deceiving. It's actually a unorthodox twin. The builder was known for his unusual designs.
Ahhh. It's the Burnelli UB-20 ?
Mike, I have it as the CB-16 but since I was being a little cheeky there I'm not going to split hairs.🍺
Over to the lowlands-
