Looking for tail rotor blades also undercarriage parts.
Does anyone know the wheel and tyre used on the nose and is it common to anything else ?.

Hi Mike,
I have a 1960s Dunlop Aviation Equipment brochure that lists the following tyre sizes for the Dragonfly:
6.00- 6 1/2 Smooth tread
4 ply
p/n for Nylon material: DS.3065
p/n for Rayon material: IAER.25Tyre size/ply is same for Chipmunk and some Auster main wheels but with different tread patterns and therefore different p/n.
Sorry, no info on wheels at all.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Dave
Many thanks for that Dave I will pass it on.

Fear not guys we are not being invaded by hairdryers.The lads in Malta have a Dragonfly on its way in fact the tail boom and some stuff has arrived already but the aircraft has been robbed extensively for another one so needs some help.
