That rather uncomfortable looking fold-out chair does appear in a British troop-carrier.

WAG BN Trislander. I recall one used for geophysical. survey across Canada. I think Saunders owned it.
I think the Junkers JU-52 had all 3 RPM gauges mounted in a horizontal row not the pyramid as seen here.

I'll warrant its Australia and not Canada where this tri-motor was built and flew.........
I haven't got a suitable offering to submit if I master the challenge, so I'll leave it to someone who has one.
Love this thread and keen to see it flourish.

Noyade has it with the DHA-3 Drover.
Effectively a three-engined fixed-gear tail-dragger Dove with Tiger Moth engines!
Wondering what happened to the DHA-1 and -2? I leave that question as an exercise for the reader!
Noyade has control.

Dead right I 4-2: the Sunair HF gave it away. Though I was surprised to see the "Sunair Electronics Co USA" on the set. My memory must be fading: I would have sworn all the ones I used were made by AWA - Amalgamated Wireless Australia?
They all seemed to work pretty well though.
I've never seen a Drover actually fly, but have a vague recollection there might have been one in a museum at Southend. Always wondered what they were like to fly,
What cockpit? and Which Aerodrome - make PPRUNE worth looking at IMHO.
Cheers!
