A question for the panel

[bazzar]

Can you identify from which iconic aeroplane this panel comes?

no, I can't!

[Ganter]

Beech Staggerwing?

[Timmy74]

De Havilland T.11 Vampire.....?

[huub vink]

No I can't, but I'm pretty sure it isn't a panel from a Messerschmitt

Based on the size and the number of gauges, it must be a reasonably simple single engine aircraft. As the label says "Attention" instead of "Caution" I think it must be an American produced aircraft.

Cheers,

In fairness Huub, you need to read the label. It says, Guess the identity of the latest development from Aeroplane Heaven.

[Naruto-kun]

Resolution of picture too low to read beyond Attention.

Resolution of picture too low to read beyond Attention.
That was my first thought, but as you say, the image resolution is too low to read anything.

[bazzar]

It's why I revealed what it says in my post.:engel016:

[huub vink]

Thanks for the explanation Bazz :biggrin-new:. But the message that the label doesn't contain a clue isn't really helping.

Its a really small panel, most likely with five switches on the right side and a very limited amount of gauges. I'm sure the central instruments contain the answer, but my age isn't helping. I'm sure I've seen these instruments before, but I can't remember where......

I'm pretty sure it isn't a Chipmunk, but currently its my best guess.......

Arggghhh don't do this to me Bazz!

Huub :dizzy:

[Timmy74]

I will have another crack at it because my Vampire T.11 guess is just wishful thinking....LOL!!!

Could it be an Auster...?

[hairyspin]

If you can see that in flight then you’re in big trouble.

Dear All

My take is Taylorcraft aswild guess because of the upper asymetric shape-but then the jokes move through the panel and picture one dont

It really doesn't look like a T'Craft to me, but one can still hope!

[MDIvey]

A Hawker Hind maybe? Tee Hee Chortle Chortle

So.. if Bazz and co have gone to trouble of modelling all the gubbins behind panel.. figure it must be seen from a n other crew position... so how about Mossie?

[heywooood]

Mitchell...no it's too small - but a B25 would be great

it looks like a Cessna 195 panel

[Bjoern]

Looks like a late 30s/early 40s gauge fit. Side by side seater. Probably english or american. Something like a training aircraft or light bomber.
Not a Blenheim though; I've checked.

[IFlySWA]

Percival Proctor?

[blanston12]

I was thinking B25 or Mossie also, but not enough gauges for a B25 and for a Mosquito not enough gauges and its was a bit asymmetric. It needs to be something a bit older. Hudson maybe?

[YoYo]

No, it isnt Mossie or B-25, it isnt Hadson also. JF/AH did Mossie also :listening_headphone.
Looks like 30s-40s plane, light bomber or two engine civil plane, machanical gyro gauge is on the center of panel.

Id like to see Swordfish or Wellington but cockpits look different also.

[IFlySWA]

Someone on AH's Facebook page guessed the new Tempest fighter. :biggrin-new: Tongue in cheek of course.

Not a chance!

Attention!

[jankees]

it's not the Rallye, is it?

[bazzar]

OK it's obviously time for a clue...

[thefrog]

Is it a HE-111?

[ian elliot]

Yep, my money's on the overhead panel, HE111

[Bradburger]

Heinkel 111, or maybe the Spanish built C.A.S.A. 2-11, as used in the film?

Cheers

Paul

[WarHorse47]

Out on a limb, here... Lockheed XP-80 or P-80...

[IFlySWA]

Yep, my money's on the overhead panel, HE111
That would make sense why AH is modelling the back of an instrument panel. Hmm.

Brian

[ian elliot]

I cheated, i fire'd up my Virtavia HE111 just to double check :biggrin-new::biggrin-new::biggrin-new:

[Bomber_12th]

Got the clue right away from the screen capture posted by Baz (they're Heinkels!). Fantastic detailing!

He-111 instrument panel:

BTW, having modeled a B-25 instrument panel for my current project, I knew it wasn't for one of those. ; )

[bazzar]

Spot on those who picked it. The label will of course be corrected and in German on the final product!

Now, another question.

I am in dire need of reference for all the cockpit and instrument placards. Can anyone assist please? This is a P2 - there were considerable differences between these and the later H series.

A BIG thankyou to anyone who can help:engel016:

[blanston12]

Fantastic! I hope in addition to the normal military version it can include one of the civilian (C/G) versions.

[bazzar]

At this stage we are only planning the P2. But you never know...:engel016:

[mal998]

Hi Baz.

Here is a P2 panel. Unfortunately there are no placards. Not sure why. Could have been deleted when they restored the cockpit or perhaps there never were any placards in this aircraft. I'll keep looking around.

[Bjoern]

The panel from Mal's post has the exact same layout as the one described on the website below and the introductory text also indicates that it is a later version for early 111s (D to H-6).
If you want to backdate it further, put the clock to the left of the artificial horizon and replace the OAT indicator with two combined fuel/oil pressure indicators*.

Shout, in you need a translation.


*I figure it looked just like the one on the Ju-88's panel (above the right VSI).

[bazzar]

Thanks Bjoern, much obliged.

I now have an excellent reference to a P2 panel with clear placards. So that's one down... seems there were dozens of field mods as well so, nothing's the same as usual.:engel016:
