I'm trying to remember an aircraft I downloaded a long time ago (a year or two, maybe) that I just can't seem to think of enough details to make a good search.

I remember what it looks like: two or four persons, low-wing, aluminum skin, wood prop, retractable taildragger gear, split forward windscreen and it had an air intake that was vertical slots directly behind the prop.  It came in three versions: wheels, skis and floats.  I believe it started with an "S", but I'm not sure.  I know the name was short and the maker was the actual name of the aircraft.  It resembled an old Ryan aircraft, but I'm fairly sure it wasn't one.  The engine had a very rough sound to it, and was pleasant at high speeds.

Any leads are helpful. Wink
