Lancaster Throttle Box?/Mossie Bomb Rack?

Hi,

To all those who know about a/c parts, I have a query about a throttle box, part no. 680 4202 – Lancaster? Also a bomb rack 11A/2264 – possibly Mosquito? . No idea how to post images but if you email me I can send some! Any ideas please?
Thanks
David

This is the port side throttle of Helston’s WG511. As Rich says, it’s handed opposite to yours with the small levers on the right….

Best shot I have of one with nothing in the way. This is the pilots side.

Its a co-pilots side throttle box from a Shackleton. The pilots side is a mirror image of that with the levers angled the other way, the friction locks on the other side and a little detent for the rudder lock.

Photos of the throttle box now added. I gather it isn’t Lancaster so anyone know what it is?

Cheers
