Hi Steve,
thanks for sharing these links.
I have also two images of ZM 1963,
one in Jersey – again with the same title and without red propeller cone’s and the other in London with a slightly different title and red propeller cone’s – but only a bw image 🙁

don’t know whether this is the original cockpit or not…

Hi Ross, thanks for your interest,
I am rebuilding a Lion VA from about 1926, unfortunately I have no history but really would like to know the aircraft it was fitted too.
Maybe an Avro 571/572 Buffalo

It was EC-CPO, cn 17094/34361

Roger, do you mean this one?
‘Hangar is part of our heritage
AMONG the buildings in Stoke Row that used to form part of the Rover factory, there is an aircraft hangar which, I understand, was where Rover built biplanes, pushed them out when completed and flew them from Barras Green.
This hangar is fronted by a row of terraced houses that were for the factory workers. The hangar cannot be seen from the road and has been forgotten but it does form part of the dwindling manufacturing heritage of this city.’

edit: pics deleted – wrong location
It would appear (thanks to google) that the fuel gauges and cockpit lamp are as fitted to Mosquito aircraft.
I can count Chipmunk out for the Engine Speed indicators,they use 6A/1299 items.
Not found a good pic of a Mosquito cockpit yet which shows the RPM gauges.
Regards,
Ben.
Maybe this one?

‘Why are some of the planes in German markings?
The “good guys” need “bad guys” to shoot at when we conduct mock dog fights and air shows. It wouldn’t look right for American planes to be shooting at other Americans, so some of the planes feature Luftwaffe markings.’

The second one is a North American SNJ-5, BuNo 85086, N12377
And the third one: N9525C or N7969C
