I think it may be in the Lago Centre in Konstanz, which is a shopping area for people from both Germany and Switzerland.
Who made it?  Hans Liebherr?    :D

Possibly in an aviation museum, but not Cosford as far as I remember.
Might be the early helicopter/autogyro more commonly called the Flying Bedstead.
Come on ME, help me out here.

Sadly I have no idea!  :laugh:

Tosh was closest with his aircraft theme and it was a good idea of his to ask for ME's help.

It's a glider launcher or less romantically a baggage unloader.

I came, I saw, I Googled and found the museum, I even found the exhibit but there's no name on it, drat.
The thing is, that it isn't really anything specific is it?
Never mind at least it spurred me into action.
