Cockpit shots of Viscount needed

Thanks again TerryP,
I´ve learned something new today!
The Viscounts that were here were series 759D´s so I guess that applies to them.

My manual (Viscount 700) does not state if all Viscounts carried radio operators, and I do not know myself, but here are a few more extracts which might assist. The opening “Accomodation” opening sentence statement. And the radio racks just behind the crew, forming the barrier between crew and passengers.

The seat we have is an exact match to the one on the right in your post. So Viscount it is. One thing is puzzling me a bit – in your drawing it is called a “Radio Operator´s Chair”. I didn´t realize the Viscount had a radio operator. Was this standard on all Viscounts?

The base is like Varsity seats and the back is much like the back of the pilots seat so may well be Vickers.
