Information sought on Fraser Nash Lancaster turrets

Hi all,

Doing some research on the Avro Lancaster I/III. I am looking for information on the
FN5. FN50 and FN20 turrets. Innards, cupola shapes (especially the nose turret).
Any idea where to find (photo)copies of the AP’s

Thanks in advance

Cheers
Cees

Thanks Mike,
Will keep that in mind, any idea where to find photocopies of these turret AP’s?

Cees, I have some Avro drawings of turret profiles. But they’re not trustworthy for dimensions etc.
I do hope some detailed engineering drawings come to light.
The FN5 is the really big gap in my project.

You know where I am if there’s anything I can give you & please vice versa.

All the very best
Mike
