Trouble was, no-one in 1993 Europe wanted a fuel-guzzling Vedednyev antique radial in their "caravan beater" - an accolade this thing in no way deserves.

Indeed also played in Name that flying machine.
At that time I found the complete picture to use it later in this What Cockpit.
I totally forgot it was played only last month and that you used a clipped part of the same photo!

the KB-6 Matajur.

I guess Open House then ? (As Asturias did not name it)

Similarities to a single seat HS/Bae Hawk , [ Hawk 200? ] but would not put money on it being correct .

The row of indicators above the triple switch are labelled "HELM" with increments of 10degrees to left and right so It appears to have an autopilot! The triple switch loooks to me like fuel valves.
Is it Spanish?
