But several registers ara giving the wrong plane.(Beech)
Note the NACA cowl!!

Looks something like it. Horizonal stab is braced. The wing braces look
the same and the cowl looks like it matches.

After looking at your picture again it looks like there may be an 8 at
the end. NC 1568.

Yes, looking at the registration, it's maybe NC 15658.
In the registers it's named as Fairchild 24C8C.

You're welcome. Where did you find it in the registers? An FAA search
that I tried would not work- too many numbers.
Are you satisfied that it is the right airplane?

I only see NC 1568 and by your list that is a Curtis Jennie?

Yes, that's right. So the combination 1568 is wrong.
But looking at the picture, there is some space between the numbers 6 and 8.
Space enough for another number. But wich?
I tried them all, from 1-9. Then there is only one combination possible:
15658.
All other combinations are not for a Fairchild 24C8C with it's special
enginecowl
NC15608 is Fairchild 24C8D(wrong engine) All others are Taylor-aircraft.
So resuming: Fairchild 24C8C, but who am to think that?
Thank you.

The original image seems to match that in my own resources of a Fairchild
Model 24 C8C with a Warner Super Scarab engine and cowling. The vertical
tail and rudder certainly look like this model or series. That would be my
vote.
