In that case how about the FIAT G.55 Centauro? However, I have to say that I thought the Centauro's "dashboard" was a little more complicated.

S'land. My sincere apologies my last post, I am afraid was incorrect, it must have been the late hour. I should have said "come down a notch". I should add in response to your comment that this is not the complete panel.

I have since found this photograph, which I am sure will give you the answer in no time.

S'land It is indeed the Fiat G.50 in fact the G.50 bis. The G.50 bis was the development version with extended range, 421 built. This is the aircraft from which the first photograph was obtained.

Here is a Fiat G.50 that was operated by Finland.

You have control

Thanks, evansb. It's getting much harder to find new pictures. I can't see this one on Mel's list though:

This one's lasting longer than expected. The aircraft had a relatively advanced form of structure for its time.
