Siemens Schuckert D1 Cockpit

Would anyone care to speculate on what the cockpit instumentation and lay-out of controls may have been on the SSWD1?

Thanks!

Hi Mike, It was suggested to me that the SSW D1 instrumentation was probably very similiar to the Neiuport 11 since it was a copy. I would just use German type instruments. If you have anything on the SSW D III cockpit you might get some ideas from it. I'm hopping that JR.R's trip to Siemens might produce something more on this. Cheers!

Hello Jon,
That's kind of how I was leaning. I just thought it wouldn't hurt to try and glean some knowledge from the experts here.

There won't be a lot of detail in the 1/4 scale anyway (probably only a partial cockpit). However, the 1/3 scale project is a different matter. Still pleanty of time for it.

Thanks for your advise.
