You've got me on this one.
Ah, got me too, I was thinking about some Supermarine early model...I think I got myself with this one as well VB. It's the English Electric Ayr. The 'clever' stub wings appear to be its undoing, digging into the sea and as a result never flew. I can't find any illustrations on the net.

(It was also designed to carry bombs on the lower wings but these would have been under water at take-off)
OK, can you identify this?
G'day Marcogrifo. Beautiful aeroplane. The Spartan Cruiser II, registration YI-AAA of Iraqi Airways.

Looks like it could be an A-17 prototype.
I dunno what's this plane on stilts but in spite of the heat I find the courage to submit a new challenge before I melt down (today's temperature here 30° and over)
