Engine Repair Tag question?

Tried to get hold of the place yesterday, no luck.
Harry Hector is the guy ya want, he has a warehouse FULL to the rafters of P&W radial stuff right across the street from Burbank Airport.

I’ll phone the place Monday & find out if he still has some.

ZRX61:

Yes! Plz send me the link or scan it for me! Tks

Do you need one of those tags? I think I may know where some are….

Sorry i dont, I wont be at the Museum again for a few weeks but if memory serves the engine ID plate is on the front ….

TXTomcat:

Tks for posting that nice shot!

If this is your engine, do you have close-ups of the P/W Engine ID plate in the back? Are you still able to read what each line says? Engine Buff/FAH619

BTW – ignore the engine mount its from a Norseman

Oh and this is a civil spec S3H1 as used on the Electra, not an AN1 used by the military…

Cheers

What, Anneka Rice?

Pratt-Whitney/Engine folks:

Does anyone has a sample of an “Engine Repair Tag” used by Lockheed, Vultee, N. American etc. c. 1937 or earlier? It used to be round and was usually located at the back of the engine.

Also, can someone provide a back view of the old P/W Wasp Engines pre- 1937? Tks/ Engine Buff/FAH619

This wouldn’t be associated in some way with a certain long-missing female aviation personality would it? 🙂
