G'day Mel.

Ki-56? Or do does your transport have four engines?

MReyn24050 5th Oct 2011 23:42

Hi Graeme.
Not the Kawasaki Ki-56. You have the correct number of engines though, i.e. 2.

Thanks mate. Bit of a shame, as I found a Pacific Wreck Forum that had underwater shots of the Kawanishi H6K "Tillie" which had similar control columns. I'll keep looking...

Looking for Japanese absentees in your cockpit list Mel. Last stab for the moment...Tachikawa Ki-54...?

MReyn24050 6th Oct 2011 00:00

Sorry mate not either the Tachikawa Ki-54 nor the Kawanishi H6K "Tillie".

Noyade 6th Oct 2011 00:01

One more. :)

Mitsubishi Ki-57...?

Good night mate!

What do we have left? Ki-105 Otori "Phoenix"?

MReyn24050 6th Oct 2011 07:47

Graeme has it. :ok:. It is the cockpit of a Mitsubishi Ki-57 "Topsy"

The aircraft above is a MC-20-1.

This initial production the Ki-57-I had the civil and military designations of MC-20-I and Army Type 100 Transport Model 1, respectively. A total of 100 production Ki-57-Is had been built by early 1942, and small numbers of them were transferred for use by the Japanese navy in a transport role, then becoming redesignated L4Ml. A
Your control Graeme.

You have been studying the Avia Quiz Challenge aircraft I believe. The Varga Model 2150a Kachina perhaps?

Absolutely correct in all respects,Mel. I should have known better!

An early Fokker?

I think they had electrical gun synchronisers....

MReyn24050 6th Oct 2011 14:53

This one is not a Fokker David.
