OK, this is a simple contest: I'll post a cockpit shot, and the first that gets it right wins the rights to post the next cockpit...! So if you guess correct I will tell you & you post your own! please post! Or you will kill the fun... once you dump here your mystery- cockpit you are the one who declares the next winner of course!

 This one's not easy ... !

 Have fun!!

A Mariooo ..... !!!!!

Quello non può essere che il cockpit del Piaggio-Douglas PD-808, che, a quanto pare, è uno dei tuoi cavalli di battaglia .....Big Smile

Ricordo di averne visto il modellino nello stand della Piaggio al salone di Parigi del 1961 ..... ed erano già preoccupati per l'eventuale concorrenza che sarebbe venuta dagli Stati Uniti e dalla Gran Bretagna ......Sad

E poi si è visto come è andata a finire .......

Ah.. missed it just by the time it takes to "log on", hehe.

Interesting how each aircraft manufacturer keep their rules on cockpit and panel arrangement, partly due to an established partnership with their suppliers. In the Trident you have the Hawker-Siddeley trademark "bicycle" flight yoke, which appeared in Concorde and continues today in Hawker business jets. The "T" outlined arrangement of 4 main instruments appears on the Concorde too.

Alan

At first the triangular windscreen led me to think about the Convair F-106 Delta Dart ..... but the control column lacked the peculiar forked shape.

So, after (not so) long thought ..... Idea

BLACKBIRD !!!
