Hi Eddie

Thanks

Oops – didnt see this thread until today!

As you have all taken my name in vain, I had better provide an answer!

AP2019 gives a size of Dunlop 15×16 IG11 – Hope this helps!

Mosquito tyre size

Tony Agar tells me that the Mosquito tyres are “1500 by 16” – I hope that helps!

If you need more information, let me know and I’ll see what I can find out.

I don’t have the answer to hand unfortunately, but know one or two people who could probably answer off-hand. If Bruce doesn’t beat me to it, I’ll post the reply as soon as I find it!

Thanks Robert

By the way, I now have that stub in my possession – I can send it on to you for analysis if you like.

Picked up some original Whitley bolts yesterday from an ex AW employee – some very heavy duty eye bolts that hold the tailplane in position, amongst others – good as new!

A friend of mine runs a Mosquito web site, that is worth a look:

WWW.mossie.org

He has collected quite a bit of technical data, I will ask him for a definitive answer.
