By what I could read, it was a picture of a B-17X Rutan.  It had been there for December 28 (spanish equivalent of April 1st). B)

I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

I did a B-29 in 1/144 along similar lines last year.

Hehehe... looks like a pocket Vickers "type C" to me. Gorgeous!  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Those are amazing, both the -17 and the -29!  B)

I think the only way to top them would be biplane versions.  :o  :D
