I’ve recently been given a box of aircraft items which include WWII German engine parts and Wellington bits and bobs. Two of the items are marked with a label stating ‘Blind flying hood stays’ as shown in the pictures.
I have no idea what these items are or more imortantly what aircraft they come from. The only number I can find on them is 4C184 because someone has been over generous with green paint (not me!!!)
Anyone have ideas ??[ATTACH=CONFIG]229232[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]229233[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]229234[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]229235[/ATTACH]

On the Fouga they call it a “hood”

Aren’t they normally termed ‘screens’?

plenty of closed cockpit trainers with blind flying hoods too!

“Hood” suggests they would be from an open cockpit trainer. Tiger Moth, Magister or similar.
