It has to be "Open House" as I have to dash but will be luxuriating in getting one right! At last.

Good afternoon Mel, You are very astute, (or are you) where does your assumption lead you ????

Good Afternoon to you to Keith. Not that astute I am afraid. The instruments led me to Italian and the cockpit window layout leds me thinking it may be to this version of the Ambrosini SAI S.7
.
But that is just a hunch. Be back later must go and mow the lawns.

Well Mel ! It is not that aircraft, sorry. But some of your thinking is in the correct area ? It is not that obscure ? I think the photography is not doing any favours ? What can you make of Evansb's earlier post ?? I cannot reconcile that with what I have in my head ?
Keith.

Thanks for that I was thinking it might be from the Breda stables. I think Evansb was referring to the markings on the turn and bank guage S and D which are Italian for Left and Right i.e. Sinistra and Destra.

As I said earlier, I think the perspective in the previous photo's is off putting ! So I have "engineered" this third shot, which will make it so easy for you all ???
Keith.
