What Cockpit?
G'day Mel - sorry mate, no recognition skills here. I just thought it interesting you posted so soon after open house was declared and wondered if you were still on the 'Temco Trail.'
So I googled "Temco Cockpit"...
However that site doesn't differentiate between the Model 33 or Model 58 - so I went to airwar.com and your cockpit shot is very similar to the Plebe.
Member SincoTC was extremely good at this sort of hunt.
Anyway, thanks!

Some of it sticks - and, of course, you have a good idea on sources to search
Let's try to narrow it down a bit.
US? Cabin-class twin?

Hey Simon.
Yes, a US executive twin.
The photo was taken from a magazine printed 30 years ago - which in turn talks about certification 30 years earlier.

The only aircraft I can find that fits the "10 years too late" slogan is the Howard 500:
Thank you. That was an interesting search.
Nothing in my file, so Open House.

Military? American??
Post 2000?
Not American..... well not British or French either
European?

That's a pretty modern cockpit - and not Russian either. But there doesn't seem enough switches and dials for a military single seater - you noramlly can't move without it doing something
trainer perhaps?
or maybe BSD was close asking about helicopters - it sort of reminds me of an Apache cockpit (it's not an Apache) - so maybe a 2 seater strike aircraft???

Indian...?
It's not as overtly aggressive as Apache but far more versatile.
As a result of it's long and difficult gestation it goes under three names, an acronym, an animal and a deity and has (finally) achieved modest sales.
Oh, and it's not Indian.
