What Cockpit? MK VI

[evansb]

Thanks. The S-20 was a modern-looking design for its era. Here is the next cockpit challenge:

How about a SIKORSKY S-38C possibly?

[evansb]

Not the 'Explorer's Air Yacht', as the S-38 was sometimes called. The design of the mystery ship is a bit newer.

I believe it to be the Sikorsky JRS-1. (From the S-43)

[aviate1138]

Consolidated P2Y-3 perhaps?

[evansb]

mustpost is spot on The Sikorsky JRS-1, also known as the S-43. You have control.

Thank you very much - thought I'd try a change of tack here - no doubt an expert will get it in one. Happy Sunday night, sorry for the delay.

Well, with Benzin on the fuel cock and Bosch on the starting magneto, I'm guessing German. Beyond that, no clue

I'm intrigued that there are no flight instruments.

[mustpost]

It is German, and latterly had a good reputation (make what you can of latterly!) seriously, without being disingenuous, instruments may be missing if you look carefully...

Pfalz D.XII?

[mustpost]

Along the right lines...(or wrong lines depending upon who you were)

[S'land]

Fokker D.VIII ?

[CoodaShooda]

Fokker Dr1?

[mustpost]

Not a Fokker I'm afraid - with hindsight this is a bit of hard guesswork, but it was all I had on Photobucket after a busy Sunday - clues are the pic was originally in colour, and the subject is restored in a museum. End of WW1..........

[aviate1138]

Albatross D-V possibly?

[denis555]

Siemans D.III ???

[mustpost]

Neither of the last two I'm afraid - this is not an a/c I was familiar with but it turns out that it could have played a significant role if hostilities had continued..

[aviate1138]

Siemens Schuckert D.IV - fingers crossed.

[mustpost]

Nope - sorry. I believe there are still three in existence - two in Europe and one in the States. Feeling bad about this now so including second view

[aviate1138]

Halberstadt CL IV perhaps?
