The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Hi Mike :salute:
I understand that Difoga 421 came from Diepen Ford Garage 1942 Model 1 with 1942 being the year the design was initiated. The engine was indeed a Ford (Mercury) V8
 
It does look a bit like the Fieseler, John, although that aircraft had wings of equal chord up to the tips.

There is a big connection, though, and I'm going to give John the :icon29: rather than prolong this. It is the Raab-Katzenstein RK-25, designed by - Gerhard Fieseler !
 
Thanks for the cold one Mike, but not feeling as though I really earned it I'll declare open house. Wouldn't have made the connection as the pics I have of the RK-25 are quite a bit different (I think my pics show the RK-25.32). The standard RK-25 Erka folder was empty, so you helped me out there. :mixedsmi:

The Board is open gentleman.
 
OK gentlemen.......
Here's my next enigma (not very difficult....)
Cheers

It's an AEG GIVk, methinks. Took me a while before spotting the Balkenkreuz....... Prior to that, and your second post, I was looking for obscure variants of the Martin GMB.....:banghead:
