Dear people,
At this moment I am trying to build a static cockpit from the fokker G-1. Under the cockpit there was an airbottle for the brakessystem fitted.
This bottle was delivered by Dunlop. I don´t know if it was custom built for this aircraft or if it was a standard bottle which was used in other aircraft aswell. (blenheim, wellington?)
Is there someone at this forum who is able to help me to find such airbottle? If necessary I can sens a photograph.
thanks in advance!

Hi Sonderman
I have one such bottle from a Whitley – it is in poor condition however and is awaiting collection from Scotland right now, so no chance of a pic at the moment i’m afraid. I’m hoping to get a consignment of parts shipped down soon and can take a pic for you.
It’s a steel wire-bound cylinder and 20 cm wide x 80 cm long with rounded ends.
