      You're quite correct, it's not.

      It is American though but a civilian aircraft. It first flew in 1937 and was stored during the war. Here's a bit more....

                          • Such devotion and perseverance deserves a reward!





                            But at least it kept you awake on the job, eh? Bet you found some interesting future challenges along the way, that`s how I find some of mine.
