Frazer Nash flare installation.

I’m curious about whether similar systems were used by bombers in Bomber Command during that era. 

Here another photo of the part, it shows the other side and you can see the gear to deploy it.

Some one sent me an image of the Frazer Nash Flare system. In the Manual of the Fokker T.V it is indeed called Holt flares

Hi Pogno,

Thanks for your reply! I will google Holt flares and see what turns up!

Regards,

Mathieu.

Not seen one anything like that, some sort of heat guard or more likely a shield that unfolded to protect the pilots eyes from the glare of the flare on a high winged aircraft. 

There was an old thread on this forum titled ‘Holt Flares on Biplanes’. I cannot find it now using the Key search function but it comes up on a google search using that title. 

This doesn’t answer your question though, as well as turrets and cars Frazer Nash made the radar scanners for the Airborne Interception kit fitted to Mosquito and Beaufighter night fighters.
