A little more exotic- Blohm und Voss Ha 140?
|
Sorry gents, the aircraft is not from Germany, although it is of W.W.II vintage.
|
Perhaps it is French, Bloch something.

On behalf of Bri I can say this is not a French aircraft. Mel |
Another aircraft I had never heard of.
It's a Fiat RS14. A nice picture of a model here, including the strange instrument panel: http://www.swannysmodels.com/RS14build.html
Open house if I am correct. |

India Four Two is correct:ok: Well done:D An elegant replacement for two aging CANT models, the RS-14 performed a loop on it's test flight!
You have control. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...r640/rs14b.jpg |
Thanks, Bri. An elegant aircraft, as you say - sort of a Blenheim on floats ;)
My remaining cockpit pictures have been done before, so OPEN HOUSE. I42 |
E la moda questi aerii Italiani?
Here's one I am pretty sure we have not had before: http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...rter/wc601.jpg |
From the extensive use of marine ply and yacht varnish - it's a boat

We are definitely back on the water with this one. Please check PMs.
|
Pretty sure its a Curtiss Seagull.
|
You are absolutely correct sir! Well done!:D
Unfortunately I am on remote access here and cannot post a photo of the aircraft so, if anyone has one please feel free. Passo comando. |
I hope this next one is considered a cockpit...

I'm guessing it's an airship, can only think of two names, so I'll try one
R101 |
Curtiss Seagull
As larssnowpharter requested:-

Incredibly close old,not bold!!
The first photo shows the steering coxswain with the engine telegraph panel behind him. The second shows the height coxswain standing at the elevator wheel. |
Thanks Mel. I always thought the Seagull was one of the prettiest of the early 'boats'.
|
Would it be the R100 then???

I can only but agree :) http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...-Seagull-a.jpg |
I'm sure LowNslow is there....my other name was "Hindenburg", not R100!
(I have a letter and envelope sent by my mother in Jamaica to her parents in England, franked as carried via New York and Germany, and naming the Hindenburg as the airmail carrier, not long before the tragedy.) |
