Name the plane!

We had an amazing set of pictures donated today by Rick Schneider of Brodhead. His father Rudy was an Army mechanic before WWII and took a lot of pictures of the aircraft he worked on. While we don’t normally concentrate on military aviation, this batch of local history shows some really unique aircraft that don’t always show up in the history books.

Who can identify this one? Our resident “expert” knows, but who else does?
