Looks like an Me210 to me (before they went for the single tail). Spinners look wierd though.

Good one Staga. I was thrown by what I thought was a difference in the nose section. I have never seen those pictures that you found there and the engine cowling is completely different than the Ar-240 picture I had only seen before today.

I did chose that pic 'cause from that angle plane looks like Me-410 (or early twin-tail 210's) thought those spinners sure look odd :)

Me-410 cockpit:
