Yes Storch that's what it is the Loire 130 and yes it is ugly but a very efficient and performing aircraft so much so that several planes were still on duty in the french colonies till the middle fifties (first flight 1934).

Yes Tzaw it is of course the Letov š32.
BTW I have just come across following picture whilst googling and visiting the site rareaircraft.greyfalcon in the chapter dedicated to Finland.
This is called Morko Moriann and no additional information.
Would you have some specific information about this mystery plane?
Thanks

...based on the shape of the nose, new intake and exhaust stacks. Looked like the nose of a Yak to me.

Hi AMCKen
thanks to your pointing out the right Wiki page the mystery is now solved:it is a much revised Morane-Saulnier MS406 which the finnish called Mörkö Moraan with a soviet Klimov M-105P engine, several structural improvements and new weaponry. The brave finnish pilots caused the soviets quite a lot of trouble with this improved machine!

Can you say this is an aircraft? Oh yes, can't you see, it has a fuselage, two wings, an undercarriage and...and...what the hell is "that" thing on the nose!?
It's a plane or a steamboat?
