Am I that transparent? :ouch:

The Canadian designed and produced de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou.
(aka AC-1, YAC-1, CV-2, C-7, and the RCAF's CC-108)

evansb,

You are correct! Over to you. :D

Sorry about the little bit of "misdirection" on the rudder pedals. This was to cover for my boneheaded mistake of not cropping them out of the picture!:ugh: Didn't say DH didn't stand for DeHavilland, just said don't mis-interpert!:rolleyes:

The aircraft is PK-YRD of Trigana Air Service photographed at Wamena, Indonesia in 2005.

Here is the next 'What Cockpit?'

Looks like the Mississippi State University XV-11A Little Marvel boundary-layer experimental aircraft of the late 1960s.

Planegill is correct.:ok: Well done:D You have control.

Soooo... Planegill, I have to ask - what was it in the instrument panel photo that tipped you off?

The missing right side yoke?

The poorly arranged panel layout?

I was put off by the AH to start with, but it is similar to another photo in my collection. It looks a bit different now. Here is a photo of it as it appeared at Oshkosh in 2004.

Next Challenge
 

How about an Airacobra (P39?)

PlaneGill's challenge...
 

Not entirely sure, but I wonder if it's the Pilatus P-3 trainer.

Planegill's challenge
 

Morane-Saulnier M.S.1500 perhaps?

Some thoughts: It looks like a tandem trainer, but may be a single seater, it has a 4 blade prop, and from the bulge in the cockpit could it have a retractable nose wheel undercarriage? Maybe not as I cannot see a selector lever or indication. The windscreen does not appear to be armoured. The instrumentation is very basic especially as it looks to be post WWII, if it was military would it have more to occupy the pilot. For absolutely no reason at all it looks French to me.

An early Embraer Tucano?
Seems high enough, but under equipped.

Mel is too modest - perhaps indeed.

Thanks for that. When I posted I was going on the cockpit frame and short nose and also found that link a few moments ago. I will post the next challenge as I am sure Planegill is still in the land of nod.:)
This one is a little older than Planegill's.

I think MReyn has it, as the Epervier, single turbo-prop,T/M Bastan, 3-blader, fixed gear 2-seater; the brake lever is probably on the front of the stick, as I can`t see any brake pedals,fuel gauge far right(carbnt-carburant),JPT on left, canopy winding handle on right---oh, and the giveaway? large french size `dix` on top of the exhaust cover, as it exited under the cockpit...and a snazzy clock !


edit; wasn`t thinking about the observer in fron seat !

MReyn does indeed have it, the MS.1500 Epervier. (I thought that might be a more difficult one, but obviously not to the guns out there!)

Thanks Planegill, sorry for jumping in with the next one. I should point out regrading the photograph posted at Post #877 that the aircraft was either under construction or maintenance.

Mel's challenge
 

Do the absence of rudder pedals and the unconventional control yoke indicate a tailless design?
