This is what I have for the 513 different tail/engine which is why I didn't get it. The 514LP pix I have shows fixed gear.

Gentlemen, I do have chapter and verse on this one (Les Avions Dewoitine) and the 514 Lance-Parachute was a different machine with fixed gear. So I reckon Green gets the juice !

Good evening boys and girls!
Let me add my silly comments subject "Dewoitine D513" if I may....
In my opinion Green identifies Lefty's pic correctly as a D513 shall we say for clarity purposes "second version" (Mind you not "second prototype")?
Here's a pic of the second D513 prototype renamed D514LP ("largueur Parachutistes"??) with a Hisso 12Ydrs2 engine (930HP) with fixed Landing gear and anular radiator (like the D503):

This could be incorrect but that's what I gather after reading a bit of documentation on this matter...

Cheers

PS As you can see Lefty's post of six minutes ago posted when I was painstakingly trying to formulate my views practically corroborates my thesis....
 
Hello Green!
Yes it is the Praga E(or BH)39 with her beautiful Walter Gemma radial engine (I think she was used more by the germans than the czecks...)
Your turn please

I thought it might be a Bristol of some sort but was not having any luck.

A clue to steer us might have helped.:angel: (It would have helped me anyways).


Edit: Here is a curious one to continue with...

Hi Moses.
Immediate thought was something from Junkers. Googled and Wikied and found a plastic model kit of a Junkers W34 Hau. A version I haven't seen before. Looks very similar?

I was not sure the exact designation but the Hau seems to fit the bill. Back to Green. :very_drunk:

Might be a Roc, but I think it's probably a Blackburn Skua.

By the way, the Junkers W.34 hau had the 322hp Bramo motor. Distinguished by the vorneliegendem Auspuff-Sammlerring, as I'm sure you all knew (Front horizontal exhaust collector ring !)
