A bit of a stumper Col. After re-exam of the photo and the hanger
windows in background appearing where the empennage should be.
I'll venture it's an NC-1...or a sternless F3 or F5L Curtiss/Felix derivative.

Hi Paul,
According to my reference it was Convair, BUT, Convair means,
CONsolidated-
Vultee
AIRcraft Corp, right!

It has taken almost two years but you are right it was a Consolidated-Vultee project. The combination fighter.

OOps missed your Convair answer. Didn't take that long.
