Pretty nasty of you to use the photographs without any description or attribution.
Could you atleast add a line with the names of these planes ?

The 4th one down is a GeeBee racer, preway racing plane
The bulging fueselage is a “superguppy” I think, built to carry plane sections around Europe

I wish people who see anything odd and immediately grunt “photoshopped” would do a tiny bit of research before coming out with kneejerk reactions. If you dont believe what you see on the internet, go an read a flipping book. Get off your fat idle arse, go to a library or a book shop and look at the sources.

It would be interesting to know the make/model/origin of each, and also what their individual uses are.

That first one looks Soviet (maybe it’s the snow). I do know that the Soviets produced several large ground-effect craft that were essentially jet seaplanes with truncated wings.

The first one is a soviet aircraft built to transport troops and equipment at low altitudes over open water using the ground effect. Well done steve.
