I'm surprised you didn't include the PL-12. You know... Mad Max 3: Beyond
Thunderdome...

So many ugly planes, so little time...

Looks like a cessna 150 or two run through a meat grinder..... Can't help
but noticing that this is a computer generated image. Is this from an MS
Flight Simulator series?

This image is from a FS program, but the PL-12 is certainly a real plane:-

Originally a New Zealand design, I believe.

[ A UUEncoded file (PL-12.jpg) was included here. ]


Slightly complicated but fascinating history on this one.
Different incarnations: Waitomo/Bennett/Transavia PL-11/PL-12
Airtruk/Air Truck

Info at these, including others; Google is your friend!
