Indeed, easy guess but one of my favourite aircraft. It's a shame the zrussians couldn't proceed to make it decent, really.

ASW - you have control

Sorry mate, not British.

This will help. Same aircraft, same cockpit but different angle...

Tupolev Tu-10
I'll accept that Bri, they all look very similar and the Christmas hiatus approaches.
Your control.

It was the Tupolev Tu-2S...

Early Beech Sundowner/Musketeer (different names for the same aircraft, I think) by any chance?

Open House if correct please...

Looks European somehow, split screen suggests it was intended to be fast and wasn't armoured, seat frame suggests military (parachute instead of cushion), hoofing great control wheel suggests one of those fast 4-5 seat airliners.
Finger in the air; French, twin, one of the LeO's stopped by the fall of France?

Edit; just noticed a missing instrument- is this in a museum?

Hi Kitbag.

French twin. Fast. Military. Not an airliner. Not LeO product. Not in a museum.
