As things seem slow I will pop in this little number. The manufacturer and cockpit designer will do as the model number has not yet been announced.

Control columns look like leftovers from Jetstream/HS125,and they`ll also foul the ashtray/coffee-cup holders,so whoever it is..back to the drawing-board !!

aviate1138 16th Jan 2010 06:31

Maybe the control column has transducers so movement is barely perceptible? Anyway this designer doesn't often have to go back to the drawing board. A quick 180.....

I can't speak for the cabin furnishings, but is the cockpit from BMW Group Design Works USA, for Embraer's new medium-range jet ?

aviate1138 17th Jan 2010 06:43

Correct! evansb does it again. The design company btw is one Pininfarina[working with BMW]. Often to be seen producing items such as this one off Ferarri P4. You have Control evansb.

Wow! What a car! Continuing on the theme of mockups, here is the next mystery cockpit:

Clue: Although the photo is of a mockup, the aircraft has actually flown.

Early mockup of Kawasaki P-1 ASW aircraft, to replace P-3C in JASDF service?

evansb 18th Jan 2010 14:34

Yes twochai, it is the Kawasaki XP-1 patrol aircraft.:ok: Well done.:D You have control.

The eyebrow windows of the XP-1 were the giveaway. I hope they modified the windshield wiper pivot points and the structure beside the pilots' outboard knees, before they released it for flight?

Alright, here we go with another (easy) one.

(If anybody is able to help me make this image work, I'm open to advice.:mad:)

Otherwise, OPEN HOUSE>

Tachikawa Ki77 ?????

MReyn24050 20th Jan 2010 14:55

one11. You have it. :ok: Is is the Tachikawa A-26.

The A-26, later redesignated Ki-77, was a long-distance record aircraft with a remarkably slim fuselage and finely tapered wide-span monoplane wings. The first prototype flew on November 18, 1942. Two built.
You have control.

This looks to be in need of a clue.

Built specifically for racing purposes, this type was believed capable of re-capturing the world speed record for its pilot. Instead it killed him.

........and it's older than first impressions might suggest
