Hmm, maybe you're right about the bear!

I'm in and out of the kitchen right now, so to get the grey cells in action again, is it American? wossa donk fitted?

[dook]

Yes - American.

Jacobs R-755.

Is it a Waco cabin biplane?

[dook]

No need to dig further.

Couldn't resist looking while munching and just found the hinted at colour picture that looks very like yours before desaturising

1934 Waco YKC Standard Cabin Biplane Cockpit

New one shortly

[dook]

That's the image I used.

PM for you.

[SincoTC]

New one, not much instrument detail, but it is a cockpit, albeit not very comfy and probably a bit noisy, but great if you wan't to keep an eye on the donk

[dook]

…........

Suspect high wing monoplane.

Were there passengers behind the pilot ?

[SincoTC]

Suspicions confirmed correct!

Yes, up to five passengers in more comfort than their bold pilot!

[dook]

Just a thought.

Looking closely was the engine beside the pilot ?

Indeed it was, lucky fellow!! Hot, noisy and probably smelly on one side and a freezing draught on the other side! Still, it's a living

[dook]

The search narrows.....

That's the one mate, The Fokker F.III, this is one re-engined by KLM with an Armstrong Siddeley Puma in the LH side of the cockpit, the original war surplus BMW IIIa engine required the pilot to sit on the other side

Control is yours , or is it time to level out?

[dook]

Time to level off.
For the insomniacs/late shift.

[Octane]

They used steering wheels from a London bus by the looks
