Appreciate the help Martin… the answer must be out there, somewhere 🙂

Here is a photo of a Caudron P.V.200 reproduced from Flight Magazine Nov 24 1932

There certainly is a resemblance and there is no reason to think that a land-based version of the amphibian could have been developed – but then again, there are more differences than matches.

Some additional information posted on the LEMB:

“This was the fuselage of Fw200C coded F8+BR found at Bordeaux Mérignac in 1944, and used for ground training for parachutists under the famous future Général Marcel Bigeard. The camp was located near the Dune du Pyla in Arcachon, in the park of Hotel Haïtza. The fuselage vanished some years later and one of its parts reused as a caravan! It was like Nessy for aviation enthusiasts for years in this area of France! Source : “Le Fana de l’aviation” n°298, August 1994.“

Lets hope that additional information isn’t as elusive as Nessy 🙂
