AAC Beaver AL.1

if you look at a new thread, interesting aircraft on ebay, one of the aircraft on there is a DH2, and in the advert there are photos of the dash board.

This is my first post here so hello to you all!

F4MPHIXER – If I had to put my last ££ on it, I’d say the photo posted by Olliehilmes is XP280, the Army Historic Flight Beaver based at Middle Wallop. I’ve been in it a couple of times, and it’s identical to the picture. I may have a photo of the panel myself if you like? I certainly have a photo of the cockpit of the Beaver at Coventry if that’s any help to you? I don’t know how to post photos on here so I’d have to e-mail it to you… Let me know if that would be of any use.

Strange as it might seem, you could try here:
Aerosoft Beaver

I have no idea where that was taken, all i know is my father took it and its a Beaver.

wow! hardly “standard”
never seen a deca type system in any Beaver I have flown, a rudimenty moving map! ( although the map moved literally) best I ever had was an ADF, and a DG ( poor man’s RMI)
Quite elaborate for a Beaver, none the less.
With regards to panels there is almost no constant to a Beaver, but less is usually the norm.

I found this photo in my collection, source unknown:

Thanks for all the help. The dhc-2 site is a ‘busy’ site to say the least. I think Middle Wallop could hold the answer.

Hi,
Just go to
www.dhc-2.com
You should find what you are looking for there, almost every Beaver ever built is documented.
Good luck.

Im sure i have seen a photo of one somwhere on a modelling website. I will see if i can find it.

Second the suggestion of Middle Wallop. Two Beavers on display and If you ask, all the publications you could dream of in the archive.

I think chatting to some of the MAM guys who frequent here should be able to get you
some details of the former U.S ARMY Beaver at Coventry. I should imagine instrument layout differs little.

Trip to Middle Wallop perhaps…?

Any ideas chaps.
