Well A Ju52 should have been immediately forgotten because this plane has something a Ju52 did not have. Retractable landing gear! I don't think it is a Mossie or a Beaufighter either. I am not sure what to think because the landing gear retracts outward and not to the inside.

probably a Ju 86...found the image at http://www.aircraftwalkaround.com/junker86/junker86.htm
most of the drawings of the 86 i found seems to show it w/ inline engine & some photos too, but clearly not this one   : þ

Ju-86, Ammo's 2nd guess wins.:p

I thought the hanging flaps/aelerons plus the Bf-109 style landing gear would be a dead give away.  This one is in a Swedish museum.  I think they mounted different engines from the original.
