You guys are very good! Next time I'll have no mercy! 

Yes, it's Anthony Fokker on the right next to the Fokker V.1.

Now what's the precise designation for that NA-16-lookalike?

I'm sure you'll guess the NA-16-ish in no-time, so meanwhile here another challenge!

Cryptical hint: find out who to find out what...

It's the North American NA-16 prototype!

Haha, not so quick, that's not the NA-16! 
Very very close though...

Your entry indeed appears to be the Arado L II: http://www.histaviation.com/Arado_L_II.html
Very good!

Nope, I'll give you a hint: it was a bomber/recce aircraft. Never went into production.

PS. The A/B-26 was called the Invader, not the Marauder (which was the Martin B-26).

Even though the Seahawk is one of my favourite post-war aircraft, I didn't manage to participate. I'm afraid you'll have to do with some airshow photos I took in the past couple of years:

and in formation with other navy fighters...

Hopefully I'll have a little more time with the next subject.

Valkenburg naval air base near Rotterdam.

Hmmm... not quite. Valkenburg is closer to The Hague, but to be more precise it's between Wassenaar and Katwijk.

One good way to crack bare metal profiles

It sure is, especially if you don't have much time!

Thanks very much guys

Metar, I will be honest: I did use photo references to get the metallic effect as realistic as possible. I first made a 100% bare metal Sabre using this technique and then added the markings, details and highlights.

Some have already seen it, but here's a Sabre profile I did some time ago:
