Stinson SM-1 Detroiter

Took me quite a while to find this one, as this design was widely used.

It does not look like a real plane, not even a proposed one. The engines are too close together. Compare it to contemporary six or eight engined flying boats like Blohm & Voss BV 222 or 238, Hughes H-4 Hercules, Latécoère 631, Saunders-Roe Princess or SNCASE SE.200 or conventional planes like Junkers Ju 390 or (design only) Junkers Ju EF100, or jet engined crafts like Martin XB-48 or (again design only) Heinkel He P.1068.01-80. The jet engines can be placed as close, but existing designs show a different layout and conciderably shorter wings.
Best named as drawing of fictional plane.

None of the German Riesenflugzeuge, nor a Britsh large bomber posing as a German one, as far as I know. Probably just a model.

It is the Short S.25 Sunderland, not a Kawanishi H8K.

Possibly a Kawasaki Ki-56, if the markings are Japanese.

Possibly the Seiler D-1 from 1926.
The location looks like the glider center near Rossitten (Kurische Nehrung). Most gliders from that period can be ruled out, but finding good pictures is almost impossible.

Hints what to look for. So far I have not been able to positively identify the planes:

http://impdb.org/index.php?title=File:0 ... m18s23.jpg
http://impdb.org/index.php?title=Matchless
No idea so far. Details match the Piper Cub, but I know of only one low-wing planed based on the Piper: the LIPNUR Belalang. This plane here is different, but I cannot say who made it.

http://impdb.org/index.php?title=Delta_ ... Connection
I am sure I have seen it before, but cannot put a name to it. The general layout is widely used from the late 1920s on. Only the engine cover is quite specific. It could, of course, also be a mock-up made of plywood.

Strangely enough this one refuses to be found. There are many ornithopters and cycleplanes, but none matches this one. Obviously in development at the time of filming (1929). From the clothes I would say Britain or possibly Canada/USA.


Updates for some makes and names:

Fieseler Fi 103 R 3 "Reichenberg-Gerät". This is the piloted version of the Fi 103 (V 1).

Actually not a plane, but still interesting enough to list it here.
The pictures show Aggregat 4 (A 4) test rockets. They were only named "Vergeltungswaffe 2" (V 2) after the first use against London in 1944.
The test rockets were not produced at the Mittelwerk GmbH. A conventional producer's or company's name cannot be given, as they were developed and made by the Deutsche Raketenversuchsanstalt Peenemünde. Hence in literature the rocktes are named Peenemünde A 4 or Peenemünde Aggregat 4.

So much for now.
