What type of plane is this Amusement park ride "the John Denver Experience" modeled after?

WTG!

Indeed is. Looking at the geometry, that's about as aerodynamic a WWII-era twin gets. Very cool plane indeed.

Wouldn't it be amazing to have one restored at Smithsonian today?

473 mph at 23k in post-war tests using US avgas... Pretty impressive!

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.
