Didn't king kong swat one of those out of the sky?

King Kong swatted American fighters of the early thirties. :)

Anyway, the aircraft is Czechoslovakian Avia Ba.122. One of the first purpose-built aerobatic aircraft in the world.

I can only imagine how much fun it would have been to fly one!

And it looks so cool in this sunburst scheme:
