Re: What Cockpit ?
If not the Bristol Beaufort how about the Bristol Blenheim? No forget that I now recall the Blenheim had completely different control column and layout. Clutching at straws again Vickers Wellington Mk1 or Armstrong Whitworth Whitley?

Re: What Cockpit ?
Maybe a SARO Lerwick ??
Not exactly a success in service and almost forgotten about nowadays. Twenty one built, if I recall correctly.

Nicknamed the 'Sinking Pig' due to both its porcine appearance and negative climb rate on one engine.
Almost as dreadful as the Blackburn Botha.

PPRuNe Radar.
The same pic was posted by BEagle on Sep.29 page 1.
It's the Douglas X-3 Stiletto.
Over 190 cockpits have been posted now and MReyn24050 has done a fantastic breakdown of all the stats on an Excel spreadsheet. We are looking at ways to get it posted on the site.

Thanks. I have not yet come up with a solution of how to get it on the net but if anyone wants a copy please PM me and I will forward it to their email address. I would like to add that cringe has also done a fantastic job in producing a similar sheet. We have exchanged data and verified the results.

I really enjoyed that challenge I must admit I didn't even consider the Lerwick. Keep them coming

Excel for the Mac enables saving a spreadsheet as html, so I've posted it here:
What Cockpit? List
It needs a bit of tweaking as the html conversion isn't flawless, but you can read all the information.

Coo. That was a toughie, and I like big boasts.
Thanks for the spreadsheet, chaps.
NEXT! (Otherwise what's Cringe going to ace, incidentally showing us that one girl is better than all the boys?)

Re: What Cockpit ?
I hope I haven't taken a liberty here but I have converted Mel's table to a web page and it is temporarily hosted on my site at the link below. If anyone has a problem with this please let me know and I will remove it. Having converted it to HTML I'm hoping that someone will "adopt" it and host it elsewhere in a more official capacity.

I've just realised that AppleMacster beat me to the punch. I reckon the broth is well and truly spoilt.

Re: What Cockpit ?
Well, I've posted one which I thought was reasonably easy and everybody struggled, and one which I though would take a while and took 4 minutes.
This one I reckon is middlin', so who knows!
