What Cockpit ?

[sycamore]

Granger Archeopteryx, and I think I was the last person to fly it at OW,11-4-77;so we`ll wait for Airbedane to give an update,if he is going to fly it !!!!Syc.

[jabberwok]

Sycamore is correct.

Was it as difficult to land as reports suggest?

[MReyn24050]

We seemed to have stalled. It would appear to be Sycamore's throw. I put this one up to keep things going. I apologise in advance for the poor quality.

Not the Mosquito Mike. It is a twin though as you no doubt have deduced.

[sycamore]

J `Wok, in a word -yes !
Please carry-on, I can`t scan anything as it`s f%^&K*D !!Syc

[MReyn24050]

Thanks Sycamore, please forgive me for jumping in. I guessed something must have been up. Hope you can fix it soon.

It's Japanese, twin engine, single pilot. Could it be the Ki-45?
It doesn't quite match the photos I've been able to find (pressure gauges on the other side of the panel for one thing)
But it could be a different variant...

p.s. apologies for not being around to comment on the last pic I submitted - I was away on a course over the weekend and by the time I managed to check in, you'd (correctly) ID'ed it and moved on!

[MReyn24050]

Tim
Please do not apologise fully understand, hope the course went well.

It is a Japanese, twin engine aircraft and flown by a single pilot. It is not the Ki-45 however?

[MReyn24050]

Correct Mike. It is the Kawasaki Ki-48 (Lily)

These were captured in China after the war
You have control

I'm straining my eyes to make this one out, but is it a Vickers Valiant?

[682al]

Thanks Mike, the yokes are distinctively Vickers so working the rest out wasn't too hard.

Here's mine...



I'm a bit "here, there and everywhere" at the moment so please be patient if my responses are slow in coming.

[MReyn24050]

Going on the windscreen format it reminds me of the Heston Type 1 Phoenix Judging by the intruments on the central console it may be a twin.

[682al]

Heston Phoenix it is, well done MReyn24050!

[MReyn24050]

682al
Thanks. I am sure this one will not remain unsolved for long.

Beech Staggerwing? Not 100% sure so won't post in anticipation.

866

[MReyn24050]

Sorry asw28-866. Not the Beech Staggerwing.

[jabberwok]

Trying to recall other aircraft with throw over yokes..

[MReyn24050]

This aristocrat is not a Stinson.
