What Cockpit? MK VI

[Noyade]

Tupolev? Da.

Sounds like computer jargon, but is it the open cockpit on the USB...?

[evansb]

Yes, the Tupolev USB. You have control.

Mystery Throttle Quadrant

Throttle quadrant believed to be ex-RAF

Any takers?

[sycamore]

Jetstream..?

[dixi188]

Agree.
SAL-J is Scottish Aviation Limited - Jetstream
Turbomeca Astazou powered version.
IIRC the thumb wheels were to bring the rpm up slowly from ground to flight range because if you pushed the small levers too quickly the engine would over temp.

[Noyade]

Thanks Brian!

I'll just sneak this one in here...

[MReyn24050]

Interesting aircraft Graeme. Something from the USA?

[Noyade]

European Mel.

[MReyn24050]

Koolhoven FK-52 perhaps?

[Noyade]

Very well done Mel.

All yours.

[MReyn24050]

Great challenge Graeme. It was the cockpit surround that caused me problems. Here is the next, somewhat older than yours.

[Noyade]

The photographer has taken the snap looking through a large porthole?
Is he in the passenger cabin?

Another Russian mate?

[MReyn24050]

This one was not Russian. As regards the view from the passenger cabin I would say from a crew compartment.

[Noyade]

crew compartment.

Bomber?
British?

[MReyn24050]

Not a bomber or British. It was French and operated from water.

[Karlark]

Afternoon Mel,

Was it a Latecoere 21?

[MReyn24050]

Hi Karl Not the Latecoere 21 but a similar aircraft that was built a few years earlier.

You have control
