Cue Twin Otter offering to display it at Newark Air Museum :diablo::diablo:

Roger Smith.

Hey, has any museum yet done a display on “what can be done with surplus bits of old aeroplanes” ???

Too rich for Newark – but as mentioned in post #6 all charitable donations gratefully accepted. 🙂

Your quip set the grey cells going and I remembered something from my childhood back in Newark just before I became a member at NAM, which has a similarity to the object mentioned by the OP.

A near neighbour (a former-Desert Rat and a Post Office worker) gave a wheelbarrow wheel to a certain local draftsman of said parish!

This item was allegedly ex-Spitfire (believed ‘liberated’ from 58 MU in Newark or the local Drill Hall Barracks) – I wonder whether it was a Spitfire wheel and whether it made it into the system? :confused:
