Nice. Thanks Dixi.
My similar looking 'Constellation Cockpit/Crew' shot is from this 1950 publication. I like old books. Cheers.

Yes, it's in a museum with a Winjeel seen at top left.
A Facebook page says Sir Charles Kingsford Smith flew one of these machines - the challenge photo that is, not the Winjeel.
