Not a He112.

Still looking for someone to even hit the correct country. (Clue)

And it was taking in a museum store in the 21st Century, which rules out a lot of aircraft, especially them that are extinct... Oh, it's a genuine original, but I don't know how bodged the cockpit may be...

It's not a Blackburn Roc, is it?

Whatever it is, even if all the holes were filled - it's very spartan in there!

Ah, just read the your earlier reply - so it can't be one of those!

I know you can get done for insider dealing but I would have to say Tacit Blue stealth research aircraft.

Shouldn't we wait for JDK's answer before posting more cockpits ?

Bre901's go...

Dewoitine D-520 in store at Le Bourget, the other side of the airfield to the Musee de l'air et l'Espace.

MReyn's correct as far as it goes, but as to the other guesses - oh dear. "flailing" would be the best adjective.

Well done!

I'll be rather busy until tomorrow evening, so here is my proposal



And before anyone asks, yes it's a glider

Total guess (as usual for me!) Bre901, but your namesake?

No, it would have been too easy (was tempted, though, but I couldn't find a good pic)

Once again, Cringe gets it right !

Incidentally, my first glider flight (june 1975) was on an ASK-13 (F-CEAG, still flying in the same club)
