Great pics AZFlyer. My old man flew for the other side (Royal Air Force, not the Luftwaffe). I wish he had kept his photographs, but he threw them out - said he didn't need reminders.

The aircraft looks very much like a 1941 Waco UPF-7, built here in Ohio by the Weaver Aircraft Company. I think they went out of business in 1947.

There's a YouTube of one here: Flying the Waco UPF-7 - YouTube

There's a few stills here: Aviation Heritage Golden Age Short Stories

Good luck with your research.
