Curious about that instrument box though in the first pic you posted, it would appear to be attached below the main instrument panel. What was the function?
Here is an odd picture (at least to me). Other then it being erroneously labeled as a cockpit scene from a Fw 200 what do you notice unusual about this picture? Well for starters it's a dedicated dual control cockpit with no swing-over yoke. Also, what is that non-standard instrument box mounted on that equally non-standard pillar mounted in front of and between the two crewmen. What do you make of it? I'm perplexed. A trainer of some sort? An equipment testbed aircraft? Anybody know for sure?

Oh, and the picture is from the very first Squadron-Signal In Action Book Luftwaffe Volume 1
What would they need, in addition, to the standard panel for instrument flying? Maybe a homing set of some sort?
I'm going with cable tv!
