Have found an odd collection of cockpit labels that I’m trying to link to their respective aircraft.
Some intriguing ones especially the second one which is a twin engine aircraft with a glider towing capacity or drone ??
The first one is still attached to the original wood. Possibly Meteor or Vampire.
Any one got any ideas ?

Another candidate could be Beaufighter.

Another twin that towed gliders would be Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle, towing Horsa’s and Waco Hadrian’s etc.

The first one is indeed Vampire or Venom. It fits on one of the removable doors in the gun compartment. The third is Mosquito – for a TT35.

The first one is still attached to wood so I would suspect something off possibly a Vampire. Obviously an aircraft with a nose wheel

Miles Monitor could fit the description, being twin engine and used amongst other duties for towing 32ft and 16 ft target gliders made by International Model Aircraft Ltd (of FROG and Penguin models fame) in the Lines Bros factory, Merton, London.
