Hoping someone can assist me with this inquiry – I’m in the process of purchasing a large lot of RCAF items from a local estate. There are five complete crew seats: 3 Argus, 1 Hudson and one Digby…only, I knew nothing about this aircraft type until I returned home to “google” it. Does anyone have an image of a Digby crew seat for reference? I’d prefer to make an educated purchase.

PS – wasn’t able to get any pics this trip.

Here’s a link to a page on the NMUSAF site which has an image showing the cockpit of their B-18A…

Troy–
Haven’t got pix of Digby seats, but if it helps, the Digby was the Commonwealth version of the Douglas B-18A, and there’s a B-18A at the National Museum of the USAF at Dayton…someone there could probably do that comparison for you. (I do have one copy print of a Digby but it’s a ramp shot of the exterior and distant at that)…
