Something.
Partly I'm busy with some domestic hassles, partly I don't know what to say.
I can't imagine why a good and stable high wing design should be changed into a floating-prone low wing.
First thought when I first saw the silhouette was "maritime recon".
Second was that the nose gear looks like the one on a B-29.
Third was third world country.

Why the questionmark?
I know and you know that skytrain's picture is a flipped, greyscaled picture of an Evangel 4500 prototype. My problem is that I learned it from your post![Boo Hoo](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/boohoo.gif)
AND believe it or not, the Evangel 4500 IS a taildragger![Ugh](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies2/eusa_wall.gif)

And here is what happens when you re-arrange the parts!
