While killing a couple hours on AviationHumor.net I came across this:

I've come full circle, that's one of mine! Great thing in the comments are suggestions on how to make it even funnier...

Not sure, I really never finished it. I wanted to do it as a diorama floating at a bouy, with the pilot sitting on the LERX fishing. Several salmon were to be laid out on the wing, and off to one side, a periscope with a red star on it observed the whole scene.
Maybe one day....

Sounds like a plan to me! I'm sure it will be a hit with this crowd.

I may have found that site while looking further into the Ca183bis Russ. Was it this one?

[Later] I found this 3 view of the Ca183bis on a French language forum, but can't read any of the text.  :banghead:

Hello, If you allow me I can translate for you:
Post stated that is is a Caproni Ca.183 bis, High altitude interceptor project dated on 1942.
Hybrid engines configuration: 1 Daimler-Benz DB.605 (1250 hp) with contra rotating props on the front and a small Fiat A.30 (radial enginel) 700 hp driving a compressor acting like a jet-engine (same principle as Caproni-Campini CC-2). expected top speed 740 km/h , equipped with four 20mm guns in the wings with 30 mm cannon installed in the DB 605.
