discussion Fairey Flycatcher cockpit

[Guest]

Hello folks - I'm tring to find a photo or even better, a drawing of the cockpit area of the 1920's naval fighter, the Fairey Flycatcher.

I have a couple of pictures of the replica's cockpit but cannot be sure if they represent the real aircraft.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, Pat

Replying to an old post..

I have a couple of pictures of the replica's cockpit but cannot be sure if they represent the real aircraft.

Sorry if this is too late. The replics has modern instruments and can't be relied on.

My best guess is that the panel woudl be very simple - a simple painted panel with compass, level, altimeter, engine RPM and oil pressure and temp gauges together with magneto switches and fuel taps.

Unfortunately the precise layout has so far eluded me and I have been looking for years
