Hello everyone
Can anyone identify this panel which belongs to a friend of mine? So far no one has been able to shed any light on its origin.

Cheers Tony, that’s an excellent spot. I looked at a lot of Cessnas and Pipers but didn’t get there!

Yup


Some were used by the US military.

It’s a piston aircraft for starters, prop deice and a tachometer counter for engine usage. Would say Piper Aztec as the cut outs are for the tube framing and are the major clue.

Sorry my bad, hadn’t seen a C.2 panel. It must be quite different to the rest of the Sea Prince, Prince, and Pembroke series.
Just a thought though, the Prince/Sea Prince has a type no. of P.57, the RAF Pembroke P.66, some versions allowed access to the nose area, maybe this style of panel allowed for that?

Sea Prince C2 (not T1) – sorry should of said that..
On the T1 instrument panel the make up of the part number is K57-80-00…
On the C2 its K66-80-10…

Not like any Sea Prince that I’ve seen, they use one main central panel with two less populated corner panels.
Doesn’t quite look like Canberra either.

Percival Sea Prince – 100% sure

You are spot on.
Looks like a Percival Proctor panel to me?
