B767 looking at the hydraulic panel and sidewalls.
I have no problem with such queries but yes, maybe start a new thread for help.

… and this is the Canadair North Star version which seems to have the HUD bird selected, presumably to fly FPA?

Sorry, Captain Pedantic here. Isn’t it an AN-30? Specifically this one…

… judging by the numbers annotated on the control columns

BAC One Eleven, not sure what series, no FD108 flight director.
May be a 510ED, the BEA ones had a different FD and a Decca where the blank space is in the middle.
