| I think that you can fabricate a mount that will utilize your creative use of a ham bone ring and enhance the appearance of your BE. |

| Your welcome John - I didn't know how they worked either - I'm looking forward to you building it, so I can reference your build. |

| Lastwoodsman. Thanks for finding and posting this photograph. This picture provides me with the structural details of a Vickers rear gun mount that I can duplicate for the Baboon. Joy of joys. Hugs Gumby! |

A little too much detail for my building skills and my little BE2e. |

Here is a better pic |

Reference pic from my buddy Bob at the Historic Hangar Mosquito Restoration - looks like two rings that are hinged in the rear, and fitted with side mounts to move the top ring up and down. |

Test fitting of the sitting pilot and sitting gunner/observer. Still trying to figure out how to attach the gun to the support ring ... ? Maybe a standing gunner with arms to the handle of the machine gun and a longer - legged support ring ... ? |

Test positioning of Rear Gunner, Machine Gun Support Ring, and Machine Gun held in position temporarilly, with a pin.. |

| Hey LW, no, you don't need to give your email address to Pinterest to view pictures. I just did a Google search for "BE2e instrument panel" and it popped right up. I was lucky to find a straight-on color pic for my Tiger Moth, if I find something you can use I'll post it. |

| Well, this computer newbie cannot find, anywhere, a straight-on color pic of a BE2e IP. I'll just have to eat "humble pie" until I can find one to glue over the Tiger Moth IPs. |

| Yeah, it is a Tiger Moth IP, as I can see from Biplane's link to the Pinterest pic - Biplane - must one give their e-mail address to Pinterest, in order to look at their pics? - or not? I'm leery about giving my e-mail address out. |

| Thanks for the info and correction fellas - I will check it out after I run my dog - I was taken by the wood colored dashboard ... |

| I saw another pic online that may be of an updated instrument panel for the BE2e. Here's the link: https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn-www.airliners.net%2Faviation-photos%2Fphotos%2F7%2F8%2F2%2F1459287.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pinterest.com%2Fpin%2F355151120598282966%2F&docid=NNa54rkP94_CtM&tbnid=BrITO8sDnxZAnM%3A&vet=1&w=1200&h=812&itg=1&client=safari&bih=756&biw=1387&q=BE2e%20aircraft%20instrument%20panel%20pics&ved=0ahUKEwj3_cndr8DSAhWoxlQKHftgBtUQMwhcKDYwNg&iact=mrc&uact=8 |

| Hi Lastwoodsman - very nice panel rendition there but forgive me if I say that they look very 1930's 1940's to me. The instruments would not, I believe, be found in an aeroplane of the second decade of the 20th century! A little more research needed there. |

| My brain is starting to sizzle from all of this file management I have to learn. |

Here is a better pic of the Instrument Panels for my two seater BE2e. |

| That is my bad 1.5X magnification of my camera - the image is actually quite sharp at 26 mm across the bottom 1:20 scale. |

| That looks good, even when it's fuzzy. |
| LASTWOODSMAN, Comment for image # 38067 | 04 Mar 17 15:07 |
| I am very grateful to John Oshust for this Instrument Panel picture file - it will liven up several of my models ... |

Photo of two instrument panels glued to file folder cardboard, for the front and rear cockpits of my BE2e. |
