Well I'm not the "sharpest tool in the shed" when it comes to computers, but try this- when you have selected your image-
click right,
select 'save image as',
then when the File name appears, alter it as necessary. Attach.

Hopefully, this 'Attached file' will be called "Frenchy" when logged out.

To prevent this thread from sliding beyond page three of the 'new post' listings, yet again, I hereby submit another image for identification. I first saw this plane in an episode of "The Six Million Dollar Man".
 
No. Too many questions at once. Might lose interest. This was a nice thread once, when we could concentrate on one plane at a time...

But since you ask so nice, Frenchy could well be a SNCASO 8000 Narval

Yes it is. And point taken.
 
A hint on the twin prop?

Never mind, found it, I think. But it has different engines... is it the Ikarus 214?

Yes!
The silhouette's caption describes it as a Type 214-D with Pratt and Whitney R-1340 wasp AN-1 9-cylinder radial air-cooled engines.
 
An early Do-17 with BMW VI engines. But E or F is hard to distinguish. What were the differences of these two versions? Does anybody know?

AFAIK the E was a bomber and the F was a reconnaissance plane, but I'm not sure about that.

As memory serves,
E-a bomber
F- a long range reconnaissance a/c
Differences:
F-1 version: armament 1xMG15 7.62mm firing forward ( flexible mounted in right windw of the cockpit windshield ) and one flexible mounted MG15 which could be used as the upper or lower machine gun.Some cameras- a manual camera Zeiss FL.K.C/5a and three fixed cameras - Zeiss RMK 10/8 for panoramic pictures,Zeiss RMK 50/30 light camera,Zeiss RMK 75/30 heavy camera.Later were used automatic cameras for mass panoramic pictures (Reihnbilderkamera) - Rb 10/8, Rb 20/30 and Rb 50/30.This version was equipped with an additional fuel tank.

E-1/2/3 version: armament 1xMG15 flexible mounted at the upper battle station firing backward,1xMG15 mounted at the lower battle station firing also back.Certainly, bombs 500-750 kg - standard bombload 10xSC50 50kg bombs or 4xSD100 100kg bombs or 2xSD250 250kg bombs.
