This beauty never wore the Red Star

HAMPDEN ,perhaps.?

Mitsubishi Ki-46 (Army Type 100) "Dinah".

and evansbe steals it at the last moment :D (wonder what mustpost had in mind- I think he changed his ideas a couple of times before going to the Russians?)

The pic is of the Cosford machine as is the one I post below. I almost felt guilty about the English instrument names, but then thought why not? It is a most beautifully shaped machine though isn't it?

Bri, you have control Sir

The Dinah is a beauty to be sure, and quite a performer. Here is the next cockpit:

'This is Captain Nemo engine room, give me full power' :O


Got to be dirigible gondola. How about ZR1, the Shenandoah?

evansb's challenge
 

Looks like an airship to me also. Bri please check PMs.

Not the ZR-1 Shenandoah.

Tragically, Japanese and the Dinah was what I had thought of, but couldn't confirm the cockit(!) :* Well done evansb :D

Ok, but we are talking about dirigibles?

I have a problem here in that I can't reconcile the shape of the front bit with the normal style of control car. The narrow diameter suggests a military use to me but I am not sure. I know that Zeppelin went in for seperate control stations for pitch and yaw, not sure about other players.

Is it the 1928 "Italia"?

We're definitely facing forward here?

It is a rigid airship. It is not the Italia. Yes, photographed facing aforeship.

This airship picture is the control position of the R80.

John Hill is correct:ok: The U.S. Navy expressed interest in the R 80, and flew it on four flights for evaluation. You have control.

I dont have my file of obscure cockpits at hand right now so its open to all comers!

Open house gents!:)

I cant see the picture Steve but I am wondering if it is a Trident?

Can't get the image to work for some reason, only the link.
Not a Trident though, John.

I think your picture will work OK if you cut off everything after '.jpg' when you insert the image.

Bristol 175 Britannia ?
