Yep, that's an RCAF Anson MkV, with the Canadian-only moulded plywood fuselage. They were slightly less cold and uncomfortable to be aboard during the Canadian winters than the earlier fabric-sided Ansons!

Interesting goings-on there.

Default Anson

Jacobs engines Matt?

I think some of the Cessna 190s around today have former Anson Jacobs engines...
