The mind just `boggles` at the thought of trying to read instruments beyond one`s feet ! Cockpit ergonomics were obviously considered. Some helicopter,probably on skids,must be USA,or Quebec....

I would have a go at the Rotorway A600 Talon ?

evansb 9th Jan 2010 13:47

Yes, aviate1138, it is a Rotorway Exec self-built helicopter. You have control.

Found this one in the bottom of the parrot's cage.....

Sorry about the quality....

De Havilland D.H. 11 Oxford ?

aviate1138 11th Jan 2010 05:18

The similarity in appearance is quite striking. Different country of manufacture. Around 320 built. I think only one DH 11 Oxford was flown?

CaptCirrus 11th Jan 2010 05:33

That's not one of those RAA things is it?

I believe it is the cockpit of an AEG G.IV. I've viewed a verson of the aircraft whilst visiting my nation's aviation museum in Ottawa.http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...GIV_bomber.jpg

aviate1138 12th Jan 2010 06:29

Once again evansb you are the Main Man. You have control. :)

Another view of the G.IV - taken from almost the same angle

Thanks. Your G.IV cockpit photo shows propellor FOD screens to protect the gunner/observer, absent in the subsequent photos.

Perhaps this cockpit challenge will draw new participants to this thread?:

Clues: The above cockpit is a mockup, and the construction technology of the proposed aircraft represents a first for the company and a first for the category.

Could we be looking at something from Bombardier?

evansb 13th Jan 2010 17:50

Yes, from Bombardier.

aviate1138 14th Jan 2010 06:30

Being a Learjet fan could that be the Learjet 85? The first all composite Lear body since the Learfan!

mustpost 14th Jan 2010 09:24

Hmmm, had discounted Bombardier originally, is it the new CS100/300?

evansb 14th Jan 2010 17:43

aviate1138 is correct. :ok: The Learjet 85. Your turn.

aviate1138 14th Jan 2010 18:30

Thanks evansb. I declare an Open House
