India Four Two

It is the cockpit of the Bristol 211. Many will say that the Bristol 221 and the Fairery F.D.2 were the same aircraft, well to a certain extent they were. However, being really pedantic, the Fairey F.D.2 WG774 was redesigned at Filton in 1960 with a lengthened body, by 1.8m, a slender ogee wing. New instrumentation was installed. It first flew in its rebuilt form on the 1st May 1964.

So, pedantically speaking, you have control, although should you wish paulc can take it as the subject aircraft kept it's registration WG774.
