All because "whereas the wing of the H.220 had a leading edge perpendicular to the fuselage, both spars featuring several degrees of forward sweep, that of the NC 600 had some three degrees of leading edge taper and perpendicular spars (span and area remaining unchanged)".

Christ, even the tankies (you know who you are) aren't that picky!

OK, a nice easy one.

adrian roberts is an unknown quantity at this point
I've a funny feeling about this one. Sure I've seen it before but I don't like the look of the hee-hee that comes up in the tag

The ground crew look Japanese but the pilot doesn't.

They might be Japanese emigrés in a certain Eastern European country allied with Germany during the war

Then watch this From one website on this plane:

After World War Two, the [deleted] shipped home the entire factory and all aircraft, as "war reparations". There was even a joke around, at that time: Do you know the Principle of Lavoisier? Nothing is lost, everything is transported.

I know that site - and the funny thing is that the one pictured here is the next "model"

I say model, but like the NC 600, it's a bit spurious to say so

p.s. when they say dug up every piece that they could find, do you think they meant literally?
