What is this?

If you want strange you have Bv 141 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bv_141

And what about Caproni Stipa? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYqr2h_xQRk

Is the BV-141 really that strange? Tts just a plane with the cockpit and engine both offset from the centerline. Certainly not something we are used to, but definitely recognizable as an airplane, unlike some of the more radical secret projects.

OT but this thing was hanging over the space shuttle Enterprise, how times change.

It was in context of someone that says Fw189 UHU is strange. I should also say that your definition of word strange appears to be different than mine. I call strange something unusual even if it have some resemblance.
I say this because many of disagreements that appear on web happen because people have different grades of words meanings and i already lost too much time discussing things that in the end are just discussing the meaning of a word. Btw i don't want this to look unfriendly.

Utter freakin gloss, zuluhour. I totally love them older planes. Seaplanes just seem to float my boat somehow. Thanks a lot for your pics. And I do like your selection.
