Here is the second clue: An improved version first flew in the early 1960s.

High wing,single engine perhaps?

Yes, it is a high-wing, single-engine monoplane.

Aircraft first flown in 1957 ... Boeing 707 .. Avro Arrow .. Sikorsky S58 .. Fairy Rotodyne .. Lockheed Jetstar .. Cessna 142 (later 150) .. Plus many others I believe ! Could it possibly be any of these haha ? Keith.

Sorry Keith, none of those mentioned. Not from any of those countries either.

Polish by any chance?

Not Polish. Another clue: it was powered by a Continental C-90 engine.

Aeronca 7F Tri Traveller ???

The Dinfia IA-46 Ranquel perhaps?

Sorry, not American, nor Argentinian. The aircraft was built and designed in Europe.

May be an Pützer Elster from Germany?

Sorry, not from Germany. The mystery aircraft shared the name of a car built at the same time and in the same country of its manufacture.

Bri,

I don't have a clue about the name, but the design strikes me as having an Italian influence.

Pushing the boat out again ! How about I.A.R. 818 from Romania ? Doesn't fit with many clues ?? Keith

Would that be the Legrand-Simon LS50 Dauphine?
Mel

Mel, you are correct:ok: The improved version, the LS60, was the challenge cockpit a few months ago. You have control.

Next Challenge
 

Thanks Bri. Here is the next challenge.

I'll commence by guessing it is a Lewis & Vought VE-9. The two-tiered panel is unusual, as is the intrusion in the lower centre, which looks like a housing for a nose wheel. The sterno pot dead ahead looks like an early RN torpedo aiming device. All a bit puzzling. The well padded cockpit sides would indicate a racer, or is it an inflatable collar for the odd off-shore excursion ?

Mel's Challenge
 

Sorry Bri. Not a Lewis & Vought VE-9. India Four Two's last comment is applicable to this aircraft.
Mel

Is it from Ansaldo ?

Mel's Challenge
 

It certainly is Bri. :)
Mel

So it's an Ansaldo SVA, WW1 scout/recce machine.

Mel's Challenge
 

Agaricus bisporus. You are getting there for the extra point can you give me which one?
Mel

Hm! Caught me out, haven't you? Answers derived not from knowledge but web search.

It looks to me like a 2 seater, the singles seemed to have a high-backed fuselage, and that device ahead of the screen could well be a gun mount, so I'll say a -10 2 seat recce version. The apparently padded cockpit sides might be explained by this too.

Mel's Challenge
 

As you have rightly deduced it is a two seater and in fact it is the Ansaldo SVA.9.:ok:
http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...saldoSVA-9.jpg
In 1979 Aeroplane Monthly reported on the restoration of a SVA.9 by Herbert Fyfield and was part of the Fyfield Collection of Washington,Connecticut, USA. I am not sure if this collection still exists perhaps someone can confirm.
You have control
Mel

Free for all!

Here is the next cockpit:
http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r.../WCP080509.jpg

G159 Gulfstream 1 ?

How about the Grumman Gulfstream 1 (VC-4A) The twin turboprop ??? Keith.

windriver is correct:ok: By a nano second. The Grumman G159 Gulfstream I. You have control.

Sorry Norwich... just pipped you to the post. I spent many happy hours in the G1 so an easy one for me.....

Here goes...

Bristol Blenheim MK IV - possibly, perhaps, maybe......???

Not quite....
