It looks like a relative of the Swordfish. Is that a passenger compartment under the wing, it's hard to tell from the photo.
if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

The clues are the tail fin shape, the fixed slats and fuel tank in the upper wing.
Layout sound familiar?
10 were made, one to the UK, 8 to Oz and one to Canada.

The fin looks DeHavilland, but the tailplane is wrong!

It's a de Havilland Giant Moth

Yes indeed.
Its amazing how despite its size it retained most of the features of the rest of the Moth series but I am not sure all that fuel right above your head would have been that comforting.

There are too many 'modern' light aircraft for my poor brain to remember!:(

Unfortunately, Sangoma has chosen to leave us, so we didn't find out. I'd go for a Jodel minicab, but as it's a home-build, and there are so many minor variations, it's hard to tell.

You could very well be right Eric, I thought the minicab had dihedral wing tips and squarer fin, but then I found a picture on this page...

looks pretty similar.
