    OK - FOUL!
    :)

    The hint threw me off being non-American - THAT is a Finnish BREWSTER BUFFALO.

    Dad gummit - I thought it looked 'naval' in style and culture!

    I am vindicated (at least to me) :)

    I use Han Solo for an avatar because,
    1. He's better looking than me
    2. If there were cowboys in space it would be him. A cocky nonconformist, (almost sounds like a real pilot)

    These were made of bamboo and covered in fabric - then painted.

    I've never seen a picture of one though.

    It's the cockpit in the B & W seaplane, (Boeing and Westervelt) circa 1919?................or maybe not. That panel looks a bit more modern than 1919.
