What Cockpit? MK VI

[evansb]

Thanks Mel. That was an enjoyable challenge. Here is the next mystery cockpit:

[evansb]

Clue time: Yes, that is a radial engine.

I'll go for a Rearwin Sportster 7000? Deep breath.....

[evansb]

Sorry, not the Rearwin, but you are very close. Same era, same engine, same configuration and category.

[aviate1138]

Then my next possibility would be a Porterfield 35-70 FLYABOUT?

[evansb]

aviate1138 is spot on It is your turn.

[aviate1138]

Thanks B, I have tried 6 cockpits only to find each one on Mel's list!

I am wimping out and working on earning some pennies, so it is an Open House and thanks once again.

What's this?

[India Four Two]

Time for a clue I think. Look south of the equator.

[Kitbag]

Something from Pacific Aerospace perhaps?

[India Four Two]

Hi Kitbag,

I was beginning to think that no one was interested

Good guess, but out by several thousand miles. This is a kit-built two-seater of indigenous design. The company also supplies kits of a well known US design.

[aviate1138]

I'll have a go with the ALW SPORT 2000 perhaps?

Unknown Blind Flying Panel

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what this is from? It's the flared bit at the bottom I don't recognise....

aviate1138,

That's a nice looking aircraft, but this panel is from a different aircraft, still thousands of miles away. This aircraft has tricycle gear and a strutless high wing.

uuoret,

You'll probably have more luck if you start a new thread with your blind-flying panel picture.

Don`t know what cockpit, but the` panel` looks like a Chipmunk`s. Holes at top right for air vent ,and starter `ring-pull`.. Flared bits for a-v mountings..

Paradise P1 from Brazil?

[India Four Two]

kitbag,

Right country, wrong aircraft. Somewhat similar to the P1, but no wing struts - I hope they did their spar stress-calcs correctly.

[Kitbag]

Well me ad Mr Google can't find anything Brazilian that fits

[India Four Two]

kitbag,

yes, it is certainly very obscure. I stumbled on the picture by accident. It is a Rupert Aeronaves Vimana R12



Rupert-Aeronaves

The designer is Charles Rupert Jones, whose British parents moved to Brazil when he was a child, hence the very un-Brazilian company name.
