This pilot's place, just about merits the name “flight deck": Wg Cdr D. R. Donaldson sits at the controls of Endeavour, HRH the Duke of Gloucester's Avro York, early in 1945. Pilot and copilot each had a set of flight instruments, but shared the engine instruments and controls, which can be seen in rows of four between them and on the roof console. The wireless operator's panel is below and behind the pilot on the left; the navigator's panel is at top right.

“I’m sure they're talking about me behind my back": an Avro Manchester and its crew in November 1941. The flight engineer sits on the pilot's right, and the navigator faces aft. The daylight under the engineer's seat is coming from the bomb-aimer's station in the nose.
