Yes I was going to say uboat.net but also for a ‘quick’ answer try this one – they reckon 212 boats sunk…although its never usually as simple as that 😀

Yes it does look gliderish,’sauerstoff ‘ is german for ‘oxygen’ so the bottom 2 instruments will be (R) – oxy pressure (contents) and (L) – probably a flow gauge (like a ‘dolls eye’ ) when you breath (demand) oxygen.

I dont think it could be from a Horten,it looks to be designed for a single seat (or tandem 2 seater) glider/motor glider or perhaps lightweight jet with an upright seat for the pilot.
A Horten being prone position would not be tall and upright and would not have the leg ‘cut outs’ at the sides,it would be shallow and wider.

Of course I had forgotten that the powered horten a/c had upright seats,but still think the subject panel has a slightly more modern ‘feel’ to it!
Here is a link to ww2aircraft which has 2 pics of Horten inst panels ( shallower and squarer).

I know this is probably not exactly what you are after…but it gives me the excuse to post what I think is one of the ‘classics’ of aviation photography,the Sikorsky Ilya Muromets…:D

Great to see those photos and a Ford Anglia and a Bedford Dormobile (?). Shame about the Tiger with an enclosed cockpit, sacrilege. Fortunately it has now reverted to its original state.:)

Ah yes the Ford ‘Angular’…it was always fun to hear them trying to start at this time of year 😀
istr you had to be careful of Dormobile sliding doors under heavyish braking,they ‘shut’ fairly quickly if you slammed on the anchors…well – as much as you could with good old drum brakes :rolleyes:

Baz, no….I think possibly the person you suggested has already posted under another name! 😉

Surely not Andy !!…well he sure had me fooled LOL
for 1 post that is LOL
