a long shot but does anyone know Peter Kirk? He was involved with creating a ‘Surviving Engines’ list for Rolls Royce (included any engine). I was in contact a few years ago but his e-mail address is no longer valid.
Cheers in advance

Thanks for all the replies…I was after Peter Himself as I had a question for him.
Thanks again

I assume your after Peter himself? rather than a copy of his list?
But for those interested I have recently downloaded a copy of the list from the web at this html:
http://www.crossandcockade.com/files/UK%20ENGINES.doc
An excellent and valuable reference document, like the similar airframe register document by BAPC and a resource that would be worthwhile in Australia and elsewhere.

This has been mentioned before and I occasionally access that site even though I have a printed version. ‘Cross & Cockade’ broached BAPC’s copyright by publishing it on the web I believe as did I when I used some pages on a thread a few months back (sorry).
I personally think that the engine register and the NAHR should have as wide an audience as possible – I have voiced this opinion at BAPC and will continue to do so.
Having said that (and back to the subject) an alternative possible means of contacting Peter is via Roll Royce Heritage Trust.

I am to talk to the Derby Historical Aircraft Soc on the 14th and Peter has been there in the past, If not I can find a telephone No for him. Or phone W.H. (Bill) Harrison for it.

If you get stuck, get in touch with me in a few days and I will have a look for his contact details. Failing that, I can put you in touch with his colleague Peter Felix.

thanks for the advice…

Agreed, the BAPC have published a Rolls Royce engine list, but it is reasonably old now and I’m not sure of the availability. Contact the secretary and ask.

Could try through the BAPC as Peter was well known within
try the secretary via e-mail
