Thanks, Mel. The next pic is rather small, though I'm sure that won't present a problem for experts of your caliber. :)

what cockpit
 
H-P Hampden, or a bit later?

cringe 26th Feb 2006 11:57

Same era, but not the Hampden.

682al 26th Feb 2006 13:30

One of the Potex 630 series or derivative?

cringe 26th Feb 2006 13:36

Spot on, 682al. :ok: It was the Potez 631. 208 examples built. Another pic:

Your turn.

682al 26th Feb 2006 15:52

Apologies once again for this not being a full cockpit, but the clues are there nonetheless...

Rev counter. Aurogiro?

spitfire 26th Feb 2006 19:33

Definitely an early autogiro... Cierva? Pitcairn? Kellett? Avro? Weir? Wilford?

MReyn24050 26th Feb 2006 19:40

I would say Pitcairn PA-19

682al 26th Feb 2006 19:43

Awww, I knew it would be easy enough.

Spitfire has it - twice over!

It's a Cierva C.30 built by Avro (I blurred their name plate out).

Spitfire asked me to say he doesn't have time to post a cockpit and can someone else post one please :-)

Don't think we have had one of these yet.

Clint

Top left hand corner looks loke a prop blade so I gather this is a powerful tail dragging single seater perhaps in the YAK 50 class?

Mel

Mr_Grubby 27th Feb 2006 17:41

Certainly a taildragger.

One thunk 'tis a LET/Zlin Z37 Cmelak
One heard it can be used as a glider tug too :ok:

Mr_Grubby 28th Feb 2006 02:20

Mr Cat,
Well done, it is indeed a Zlin Cmelak.

You have control.

MReyn24050 28th Feb 2006 06:49

The cockpit of M2-F1 Lifting Body NASA Research Centre Dryden I believe.

The Invisible Cat 28th Feb 2006 07:03

'twas a quick one, MReyn24050, yer believe right :ok:
O'er to yer

MReyn24050 28th Feb 2006 07:14

Thanks Invisible Cat. It was a lucky one I had come across it in my search for finding one that hasn't been used before.
I am sure this will be solved just as quick.
