dark light

Anyone identify this interior, please?

This photo of a cabin interior comes from the Qantas Heritage Collection. No-one can work out what the aircraft type is. :confused:

The scan is poor quality, but the chairs are wicker and the seat at the rear is leather covered.

It would be great if someone can give us a clue, please?? 😮

G’day 😉

Nope, I’m wrong! It IS the Vulcan. Well done!! 😀

The windows in this link are precise; www.imperial-airways.com/Vickers_61-74_vulcan.html

Thanks for the research work!

G’day 😉

Nothing more than the product of a miss spent youth eagerly devouring Putnam Publications.

While the shape may favour the Pig, aren’t the windows too big?

I’d never given the Pig a moment’s thought, but will search a bit harder on the DH-61.

Keep ’em coming; thanks!! 😀

G’day 😉

I suspect it is the Vickers Vulcan – c/n 7 was trialled by QANTAS.

Isn’t it a de Havilland DH 61 ?

EDIT:
Very bad, very wrong guess. 😮
