What’s this off? Seller said possibly Belfast but I can’t match it with any pictures so I don’t think so.
Hopefully someone on here will know it by sight.

I’m due to be on site for most of Saturday, so it won’t be any trouble.
I’ve attached a copy of the only current cockpit picture I have to show you how complete it is; they run ‘simulator’ sessions as a bit of a fund raiser for the Café / Toilet project, which are very popular.
Thanks for the parts offer.

smirky, I’ve had a quick look at my photos of the Argosy procedures trainer at NAM, but I cannot spot the panel. Would it help if I tried to get some fresh photos at the weekend?
Yes I couldn’t see it either, guess it must be either forward or aft of the engineers panel. A happy snap would be interesting but I don’t want to put you to any trouble as I only got it to use the lamps for my Wessex panel. However I always like to know what things are (might be rare!) and I enjoy these threads and hope everyone else does too.
(It is pretty unlikely but you are welcome to any remaining bits that would improve your museum example.)

I will pass on your thanks as well. 🙂

I’ve been asked by the Curator at Newark Air Museum to pass on the following message re the panel …. “…it is definitely from an Argosy. Right hand side near the engineers panel.” 🙂
Thanks Twino & thanks to the curator.
Also thanks to everyone else on the forum who has spent time thinking about this!

Eureka!

I am thinking Argosy as this one has the same knobs on the overhead in a slightly different arrangement.
