Not sure about the whole cockpit, but a bang seat and gee-suited pilot might go well in a DH2.
;D

I do really like the idea of a Martin Baker spring loaded whoopee cushion  in a DH2!!

I had a toy Corgi DB5 as seen in James Bond. All the gadgets worked such as the rear shield, the pop-out rams, and the ejector seat popped out thru the roof. The little figure disappeared many years ago but I could replace him with an Airfix pilot.

MPC did the Bond DB5 in 1/24 scale, and Airfix re-popped it too. That had all the bells and whistles as well, including the working ejector seat and bad guy too. ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
